Programs Available at Our Child Care Centres
Blueberry Lane – 2 years to 3 years
A Country Garden’s program for toddlers teaches the value of sharing and cooperation through group play whilst still allowing for individual learning. Children are encouraged to develop friendships and gain confidence as they interact with others. We also aim to identify and encourage every child's own unique set of skills and interests.
Blueberry Lane Provides a safe, engaging and nurturing environment for the child. For the children, the program promotes trust in themselves and their world. They develop confidence in their own unique emerging abilities. They develop gross motor coordination, fine motor skills, and language skills.
Within our childcare centres in Toowoomba, we carefully assemble an environment that enables children to independently learn new skills, interact with different objects and equipment, and accomplish various achievements. This is integral to building their sense of self-esteem and encouraging them to try new things.
Understanding the Benefits of Montessori Education in Gardens Childcare Centres
Montessori education is a child-centred approach emphasising hands-on learning and independent exploration through various programs. If you are considering enrolling your child in a Montessori program, here are some of the benefits that you can expect:
1. Montessori programs encourage independent learning
One of the fundamental principles of Montessori education is that children should be encouraged to learn independently. They can explore their interests and discover new things at their own pace.
2. Montessori programs promote hands-on learning
Another key element of Montessori education is that children learn best through experience. Rather than being taught through lectures and textbooks, they are given opportunities to learn through hands-on activities.
3. Montessori programs foster a love of learning
Because Montessori programs emphasise independent learning and hands-on activities, they help to foster a love of learning in children. This is one of the essential benefits of Montessori education, as it can set your child up for success in school and beyond.
4. Montessori programs prepare children for kindergarten and beyond
Montessori education provides a strong foundation for learning, helping children between 2 and 3 years of age to prepare for Kindergarten and beyond. In fact, many parents enrol their children in Montessori programs specifically for this reason.
5. Montessori programs are flexible
One of the great things about Montessori education is that it is flexible. Programs can be adapted to meet each child's individual needs, which is crucial, as no two children learn in exactly the same way.
