2026 Deakin Preschool Handbook

Children at Deakin Preschool are nurtured and challenged through a play based approach to learning based on the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme and the Early Years Learning Framework. These frameworks compliment each other and value creativity, personal identity, self-expression, meaning and independence.
Our approach fosters children's individual needs, interests and skills, creating a learning environment in which children can progress at their own pace. Learning experiences that foster cultural diversity within the community, language, individuality and real life issues are embedded in our program. At Deakin Preschool we strongly believe that it is important to recognise and respect diversity within the school, curriculum, families and community.
