Beach/Bush Kinder 2019

​Inverloch Childcare is excited to announce the introduction of our newly developed Beach / Bush Kinder program, a first in South Gippsland. 

What is Beach / Bush Kinder?
The Beach / Bush kinder program is based on exposing children to outdoor learning environments under safe & controlled conditions. The program has been designed to be conducted in specific designated areas with the approval of Land Managers & under DET risk assessment requirements.
Children are exposed to a range of different learning styles while exploring the natural environment, learning maths & science, improving literacy skills & problem solving all whilst having fun outdoors.
 
The program will be offered one day a week from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm.
The Rotary Rotunda on The Esplanade Inverloch will be the designated meeting place.
Parents will have the option to bring their Child to the designated meeting place at the commencement of the session or to drop their child off at the Centre as normal, where by the child will then be accompanied to the meeting place. On completion of the session Children will be  accompanied back to the centre for pick up as normal.
 
A great deal of research has been conducted on the benefits of Bush Kinder, listed below is just a few.

• Develops confidence & resilience.
• Develops independence
• Develops social interaction skills & broadens friendship circles
• Develops a better understanding of “sense of place” & the local environment.
• Removes the pressures of learning in a traditional class room space
• Children are given the freedom to explore & learn to manage risk, in a controlled setting.
