Vision & Philosophy
Through purposeful play and a nurturing curriculum, we guide each child’s journey toward confident, lifelong learning.
The Open arms way
Our Philosophy in Action
At Open Arms Early Education, our philosophy is grounded in the belief that children thrive when surrounded by strong community connections, nurturing relationships, and play-based learning environments.
Foundations We Follow
Frameworks We Embed
Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF)
We implement the EYLF, focusing on Belonging, Being and Becoming. This framework underpins our play-based learning approach and supports children's communication, emotional development, and social skills. Educators embed its principles daily to guide meaningful and developmentally appropriate learning.
National Quality Standards (NQS)
We reflect on each child’s development through a continuous cycle of observation, planning, and reflection. Guided by family input and educator insights, we adapt our practices to ensure high-quality learning experiences and ongoing improvement across our service.
