Learning Through Play Sessions at Cranley House & Wanslea

“Play provides opportunities for children to learn as they discover, create, improvise and imagine. When children play with other children they create social groups, test out ideas, challenge each other’s thinking and build new understandings.”
— BELONGING, BEING & BECOMING - The Early Years Learning Framework for Australia

LEARNING THROUGH PLAY

We have developed a South Australian approach to education influenced by the Reggio Emilia principles and practices.  

We now invite families to join our Learning Through Play Sessions designed to support the development of the whole child.

Our philosophy refers to our belief that “children have the right to play. That they learn best by actively using their senses through play, to experiment, think, create, discover, explore, interpret, predict, communicate and reason.  It is through play that children acquire skills and prepare for future learning.”

The Learning Through Play Sessions  brings children, families and educators together to explore the benefits of play in a Reggio inspired environment.  An experienced educator runs the sessions, ensuring that children and families enjoy a stimulating and interactive program.

WE OFFER

  • A play-based Reggio inspired environment for children and families to enjoy quality time together, as well as connecting with their community. Access to indoor and outdoor spaces and equipment.

  • Opportunities for social interaction for children and adults.

  • An introduction to the centre and familiarization with the environment and staff.

  • An experienced Educator guides an inspired program and leads a shared group time at the conclusion of each session.
