Do you know we have a saying

“The Curriculum is inside the child and outside the window!”

Our St. Paul’s Promise “I can connect with the wider world” supports children to be out in the world, paying attention to sensations, images, thoughts and experiences.

Creative Provocations

We have been igniting ideas!

We have been playfully provoking!

We have been creatively curious!

We have been learning with our hands as well as our minds.

Our planning has been focused on supporting children to wallow and be immersed in playful experiences that are offered again and again.

They have been repeating, rehearsing, revisiting experiences.
