Curriculum
The Blooming Buds Curriculum
Nurturing Roots. Inspiring Growth.
At Blooming Buds, we believe that every child is a seed of potential, ready to bloom in their own unique way. Guided by the Australian Government’s Early Years Learning Framework, our curriculum supports children in their early years with a focus on growth, exploration, and genuine connection. We provide a nurturing foundation that helps little learners thrive—emotionally, socially, and intellectually.
Our Guiding Values
Everything we do at Blooming Buds is centred around three essential pillars of early childhood development:
Being
Childhood is a time to wonder, play, and enjoy the present moment. At Blooming Buds, we embrace the magic of childhood by allowing children the space to just be. Through playful learning and open-ended experiences, we encourage joy, imagination, and a love for life’s little moments.
Becoming
Every child is constantly growing into the person they are meant to be. Our educators help guide this journey by supporting each child’s learning, creativity, and self-confidence. We celebrate individuality and empower children to become active participants in their own learning and development.
Belonging
A strong sense of belonging is at the heart of our centre. We create a welcoming environment where children feel safe, seen, and supported. By building strong relationships with families and nurturing connections between children and educators, we help every child feel like they are an important part of our Blooming Buds community.
A Place Where Learning Blossoms
Our purpose-built centre is designed to inspire curiosity and discovery. From interactive learning spaces to inviting outdoor play areas, every corner of Blooming Buds is crafted to spark imagination and meaningful engagement.
We also believe learning thrives in partnership with families. Our educators work closely with parents and carers to honour each child’s strengths, interests, and cultural background—ensuring their learning journey is personal, holistic, and filled with care.
At Blooming Buds, we don’t just prepare children for school—we help them bloom into joyful, confident individuals who are ready to grow, connect, and thrive in the world around them
Educational Program & Practice
Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) views children’s lives as characterised by belonging, being and becoming. The Montessori Curriculum is a child-centred learning framework that incorporates the cognitive, physical, social and emotional aspects of child development. In both approaches the children are always connected to family, community, culture and place.
Children's Health & Safety
Children's health, safety and wellbeing are prioritised and promoted.
Physical Environment
Environment is the third teacher behind the parents and the educators. Welcoming indoor and outdoor spaces enable children to play, learn and develop their knowledge and skills.
Staffing Arrangements
We recruit passionate and genuine educators through a variety of means. These educators are qualified or working actively towards obtaining qualifications. They are loving, caring, responsive and have integrity.
Relationships with Children
Positive and trusting relationships with educators help children to play, learn and develop.
Collaborative Partnerships with Families & Communities
Services partner with families and communities to enhance children's learning and wellbeing.
