Learning Spaces
Kindergarten Four
In The Akidamy’s Kindergarten 4 studios, our 3.5 to 5 year old children learn and play in an environment that mirrors the care and curriculum of school-based kindergartens, ensuring they are ready for the exciting path ahead.
With our small class sizes of up to 10 children, your child will receive the personalised attention they deserve, helping them flourish academically, socially and creatively.
Our part or full time kindy offering is filled with enriching educational experiences, from a school readiness program led by our occupational therapist to art in the atelier.
Our tailored Italian language programs bring the joy of learning a new language, while regular park visits offer moments of outdoor discovery and play. Here, every child finds a nurturing space where they can grow, explore and gain confidence.
The Rhythm of the Day
Welcome
Morning Tea
Outdoor Exploration
Lunch
Sleep Time
After lunch, our children transition to sleep time. In a peaceful environment, the entire room settles down for rest. Some nap while others engage in quiet provocations: activities that inspire curiosity and independent exploration.
Afternoon Tea
Atelier Visit
After nap time, our children visit our custom art studio where they engage in activities tailored to their current interests. These schematic play experiences are designed by our educators to align with each child’s developmental needs and natural fascinations.
Home Time
Atelier
Children regularly visit our Atelierista Miss Erin in the art studio to engage in creative activities that encourage curiosity and self-expression.
Projects combine art, science and a treasure trove of materials to excite all the senses.
Italian Lessons
Ms Magarita is our guide to all things Italy! As our language specialist, her lessons teach little ones new words and phrases, enriching their language development.
Language learning is supported by using these phrases throughout the day with the whole team.
Yoga & Mindfulness
Children are invited to join in yoga and mindfulness sessions. These sessions promote physical wellness and emotional balance.
Core strength and flexibility are just some of the benefits of daily practice.
Occupational Therapy
Each week, an Occupational Therapist from Baby Steps Health Centre joins us to guide children through a school readiness program.
These sessions focus on developing their physical and cognitive skills, helping them gain confidence and prepare for the next exciting step in their learning.
Park Visits & Community Walks
All children enjoy regular visits to the local park and walks around our wider community, where they can explore nature and engage in active play.
Fresh air, a change of scenery and interaction with the community all provide social and emotional growth.
O-Soji
We are inspired by the O-Soji practices of Japan where children are encouraged to respect and clean their space by helping tidy up.
These methods encouage teamwork and responsibility both at School and home.
Our Early Learning Specialists
“My favourite part of the Akidamy is seeing the joy on the children’s faces every time they discover something for themselves. It’s such a special place to work – there is a real feeling of being one big family and I have learnt so much in in my time at the Akidamy, not just from the staff but also from the children and families I care for.”
– Miss Bronte
