Our Philosophy

At Tarago Preschool , we believe that every child is unique and deserving of a nurturing and supportive environment that fosters their social, emotional, physical, and cognitive growth. We are committed to providing a high-quality, play-based education that encourages children to explore, discover, and learn at their own pace.
​
We value the importance of building strong relationships between children, families, and educators, and we strive to create a sense of community and belonging within our preschool. We believe that children learn best when they feel safe, happy, and supported, and we are dedicated to providing a warm and welcoming environment that promotes a love of learning.
​
We are committed to fostering a culture of inclusion, where every child feels valued and respected, regardless of their background, culture, or ability. We celebrate the diversity of our community and provide opportunities for children to learn about and appreciate different cultures, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures.
​
We recognize the importance of sustainability and our role in protecting the environment for future generations. We strive to reduce our impact on the environment and promote sustainable practices in our daily operations.
​
We believe that wellbeing is essential to a child's happiness and success. We prioritize the physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing of our children and provide opportunities for them to develop healthy habits and coping strategies. We also recognize the importance of educators' and families' wellbeing, and provide support and resources to promote their mental health and resilience.
​
We are committed to upholding the principles of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNICEF), the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), and the Code of Ethics. We are dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment that meets the Child Safe Standards.
We are committed to preparing children for a successful transition to school, and work closely with local schools to ensure that our children are equipped with the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to thrive in a school environment.
​
We believe that families are our children's first and most important educators, and we work in partnership with families to provide a cohesive and supportive learning environment. We recognize the importance of open communication, mutual respect, and trust in our relationships with families.
Ultimately, our goal is to inspire a love of learning that will stay with our children throughout their lives, and to provide them with the skills, confidence, and resilience they need to succeed in an ever-changing world.
