Milestones' qualified educators and teachers are trained in the Lifelong Learning Curriculum for ages 0-5. This curriculum has been developed by Affinity Education, the leading provider of early childhood education in Australia.
At Milestones, we nurture a lifelong love of learning through a combination of play-based and intentional teaching experiences which help your child develop:
The Lifelong Learning Curriculum is based on the belief that learning and development occurs most successfully when supported by nurturing and engaged educators, in partnership with families and communities.
The curriculum draws on the best models of early education, contemporary research and evidence informed practices such as Circle of Security, Abecedarian, and Project Based Learning. Aligning closely to Australia's Early Years Learning Framework, it is based on what children learn, where they learn and how they learn.
Our goal at Milestones is to grow and instil a lifelong love of learning in children’s first five years so they can realise their full potential.
