In Adventure Den, we focus on laying a strong foundation for a successful and confident transition to school. This includes developing pre-literacy and numeracy skills, social competence, self-regulation, and independence. At a minimum, we maintain a ratio of one educator for every ten children, ensuring each child is supported in a safe, engaging, and well-managed learning environment.

​​

Our school readiness program is built into everyday experiences and enriched through intentional teaching. Children explore topics through project-based learning, storytelling, games, and collaborative activities. We also focus on building a growth mindset, introducing concepts like persistence, teamwork, and goal setting. Visits from local schools and structured routines help children become familiar with what to expect next in their learning journey.

Coming soon: Fortnightly visits to Penrith Library (right across the road) to nurture a love of reading, build language and literacy skills, and encourage curiosity. Going to the Library also supports social development through storytime sessions and helps children learn how to explore and engage with books independently.
