Minnows Cheltenham

Welcome to Minnows Cheltenham, a renowned educational institution located at 15-17 Centre Dandenong Road in Cheltenham, Australia. As an establishment, point of interest, and school, Minnows Cheltenham is dedicated to providing a supportive and enriching environment for children to thrive and develop a lifelong love of learning.

At Minnows Cheltenham, we believe in the power of a stimulating environment that nurtures children's natural curiosity and interests. Our inquiry-based learning approach allows children to lead their own discoveries, fostering a sense of ownership and engagement in their education. We understand that families play a crucial role in a child's learning journey, and we strive to be partners in guiding and supporting children's love of learning.

As advocates for the natural world, we encourage children to develop a connection with the environment and learn the importance of caring for it. Our curriculum is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework and the National Quality Framework, ensuring that children receive a high-quality education that meets national standards. We also incorporate the Aboriginal 8 Way of Learning, promoting cultural awareness and inclusivity within our community.

Our experienced educators are committed to best practices and continuously strive to enhance their knowledge and teaching methods. They work closely with each child, providing personalized attention and creating a safe and happy learning environment. We want parents to feel connected and confident in their child's education, knowing that they are in capable hands.

Our program is guided by the Belonging, Being & Becoming: Early Years Learning Framework, which supports children's learning and development from birth through to their transition to school. We recognize and celebrate each child's unique strengths and abilities, tailoring our curriculum to meet their individual needs.

Literacy and language are fundamental aspects of education, and at Minnows Cheltenham, we emphasize their importance. Our planned language and literacy curriculum supports children's listening and speaking abilities, laying the foundation for a lifetime of learning.

In addition, we introduce children to early STEM skills, preparing them for the ever-evolving world of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. We believe in equipping children with the necessary skills to thrive in a rapidly changing society.

At Minnows Cheltenham, we are committed to sustainable living and learning. We promote the principles of reduce, reuse, and recycle, teaching children the importance of being friendly to our environment and leaving the land as nature intended.
