Lady Gowrie Child Centre (Gowrie SA) is a not-for-profit community-based service. The integrated early childhood programs we offer support children’s development through inclusive, play-based individual and group learning opportunities in spacious outdoor environments and natural garden settings. We look to educational ideas and research to guide and broaden our programs. Some philosophies we adopt include attachment theory, primary caregiving, Circle of Security and Marte Meo, which we will be happy to discuss with you to understand better how the various principles can benefit your child.
The educators in your child’s room prioritise actively building a secure relationship and partnership with you and your child. It is essential that your child feels safe and supported in his or her exploration and discovery, and those individual interests within the group of learners are celebrated and developed to create meaningful learning opportunities.
Children transition from our infant-toddler program to our integrated kindergarten program at around three years of age, remaining in a primary care relationship until school age. During their time in our kindergarten program, children will work with up to four early childhood degree qualified teachers and diploma qualified staff to develop the foundations upon which a good school transition can be achieved.
