Our Preschool Philosophy

At Rydalmere East Public School Preschool, our educators are committed to providing a stimulating, warm and culturally inclusive environment where every child is known, valued and cared for. We recognise that families want the very best for their children, so we deliver a high-quality preschool program that nurtures curiosity, creativity and confidence through meaningful play-based learning experiences aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF).

Our vision is to  grow great human beings every day  by fostering a sense of belonging, being and becoming. We create a safe, engaging and nurturing environment where children develop a love of learning, build positive relationships and explore their world with joy and wonder.

We value children as competent and capable learners and work in genuine  partnership with families and our school community  to ensure every child’s strengths, interests and cultural identity are respected and celebrated. Our educators intentionally model and scaffold learning to support children’s independence, resilience and social competence, laying strong foundations for a successful transition to school.

Through  reflective practice  and ongoing professional learning, educators continually refine programs and environments to meet the needs of every child. We embrace  inclusive practice  and ensure all children can participate fully in a program that promotes agency, collaboration and respect for diversity.

We respectfully acknowledge the Darug People, the Traditional Custodians of the land on which Rydalmere East Public School Preschool stands. We honour and recognise the privilege it is to learn, play and grow on Darug Country, and this connection is expressed daily through our  Acknowledgement of Country  and our commitment to embedding Aboriginal perspectives throughout our curriculum.
