About the Centre/Service At Highmount Preschool, children are immersed in rich, authentic, and meaningful experiences that support connections with community, culture and nature. This is facilitated through positive relationships, intentional teaching, co-construction, and inspiring and engaging learning experiences. Our educational programs are guided by the principles and outcomes outlined within the Victorian Early Years Framework (VEYLDF) and the National Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) – Belonging, Being and Becoming. These evolve in response to children’s changing needs, ideas interests and theories, community feedback and teachers’ best practice approach to pedagogy. Our learning environment is engaging, interactive, inclusive, and supportive, with each child’s learning and development opportunities maximised through a high-quality play-based curriculum. Our team enjoy generous professional learning and mentoring opportunities, and are supported by the committee of management and an administration manager. Highmount Preschool employs teachers under the VECTEA, and eligible teachers are encouraged to undertake the Capability Assessment.
