No, Small Scholars is an early years tutoring service and not a kindergarten or care service. Classes are not eligible for the Child Care Subsidy (CCS).
Our program complements formal kindy and incorporates elements of Prep via a mix of active and calm, play-based activities. We know every child learns differently and develops at a different rate, so our teachers tailor their approach based on each child’s unique ability. The feedback we receive is that our small scholars love their small school!
Whilst our program incorporates quiet and calm activities within the day, we don’t offer a formal nap time.
Whilst our teachers can help your little one if they have an accident, we need to maintain lessons and supervision of all our small scholars, thus we require that you only book if your child is toilet trained.
Our lessons and activities have been specifically developed for 3 – 6 year olds. Within this age band, we ensure we match children of similar age and development levels and run split lessons/activities accordingly, so rest assured your small scholar will be interacting with children similar to them.
We do not provide food during our classes, but you are welcome to pack snacks for your child. During our Holiday Programs, we will provide breaks during the day for food, however your child will still need their own lunch.
Please pack a back back for your child with the following: hat, water bottle, lunchbox, a spare change of clothes and a messy shirt/apron (for art).
