Our Philosophy

Our Philosophy

We acknowledge that our jarjum’s (children) learning at Djanenjam Preschool takes place on Bundjalung land. We respect Elders both past and present and extend that respect to our children, families, and community. Building meaningful relationships with jarjums, families and communities strengthen the foundation for growth and learning. 

At Djanangmum Preschool every Jarjum is supported on their journey to belonging, being and becoming. Each child’s learning journey is unique to their individual interests, experiences, and culture.

We believe that children learn best through play. Our program and learning spaces give opportunity for both planned and spontaneous experiences that allow children to explore, investigate and inquire in their own time and own way.

Jarjums are encouraged to be creative and thoughtful problem solvers. Children explore well-resourced play spaces, supported by a team of Educators invested in their growth and development.

We believe that families are a child’s first and primary teacher. We aspireto learn from, communicate with and include families in all aspects of theirchild’s learning journey. Supporting families to become advocates andchampions of their child’s achievements and challenges.

We strive to develop a sense of wonder, belonging and love of nature in alljarjums, so they will become active citizens and develop a respectfulattitude towards the environment, ensuring a sustainable future.

We believe positive and well-planned transitions ensure continuity oflearning and support the well being of each child. We connect andcontribute as part of our wider school community, progressively growing inconfidence as we develop connections and relationships within this space.
