Our Philosophy

Spunky Monkeys Early Learning Centre operates with the philosophy that children need to be treated with warmth and respect. The centre will promote learning and development for all ages and recognises that the skills and knowledge learnt in the child’s early years are the foundations for the child’s learning for later years. We believe that by providing an environment and the availability of appropriate experiences at the right stages of development are crucial in sharing their development and we will be a leader in learning excellence.

The children in the care of Spunky Monkeys will be provided with experiences that nurture their physical health and wellbeing, social competence, emotional maturity, communication skills and general knowledge. Our children’s development of independence, decision making, problem solving and social skills through play are all paramount to our daily interactions, experiences and events.

Staff continually promote a fun, friendly, caring and welcoming environment for our children to foster positive self-esteem, self-worth and belonging. Children will be encouraged and coached in ways to discuss problems and to cope with frustrations as they continue to develop on who they are becoming. Staff encourage children to respect the rights of others and welcome differences with respect.

We recognise that every day is an opportunity to learn something new through play, learning from others, discovery, exploration and adventures. Staff encourage two-way communication between families and staff as parent input is one of our most valuable resources to support the education and development of the children in our care. We aim to be flexible and responsive to suggestions.

We consider the health and safety of the children as a paramount concern and is imbedded within our everyday practices and programming. We aim to have the highest standards of care within the profession and are consistently looking for ways to improve.

We recognise the child as being part of a family unit with its own unique culture, experiences and needs. We value the support and input provided by families. We draw on information, celebrations and knowledge from the local and wider community to explore and develop.

Spunky Monkeys Early Learning Centre understands the importance of exploring and educating children about the environment around us, both built and natural. Through this, our indoor and outdoor spaces are utilised to explore sustainable practices and provide children with the opportunity to engage in quality experiences in both built and natural environments.

Our centre works within the guidelines of the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and the National Quality Framework (NQF). We consider both these aspects in our everyday interactions and programs. We work alongside the Australian Childcare Code of Ethics and the United Nations Convention of the Rights of the Child, and implement this in our everyday activities.

Spunky Monkeys philosophy was written in conjunction from feedback from staff, families and management. Please feel free to contact/talk to staff if you have any issued or would like anything added. We would also like to thank our families for their input.

This is what our happy parents say…

The centre is very flexible and accommodating especially when it comes to changing days, the director will always try to help if she can. My two children have severe food allergies and the centre has always taken extra steps to ensure their safety and accommodate their needs, as a parent this is comforting.

Rebecca and Carlo Scarpin   

I really love looking through the weekly communications email sent out at the end of the week. Especially seeing photo's of Hunter enjoying his day. Please continue doing this.

My Daughter Robyn has been attending Spunky Monkeys Early Learning Centre Lemongrove for over 2 years and absolutely loves it. Each day is a new adventure, she participates in a wide range of indoor and outdoor activities in a safe nurturing environment. We have seen her social skills, communication and confidence grow under the guidance of her educators. The educators at the service are all professional and very supportive, Robyn has formed a close bond with many of them and she looks forward to seeing them each day. The service provides great variety of nutritional snacks and meals throughout the day giving Robyn the opportunity to try different foods. I am very grateful to the team at Spunky Monkeys for giving my daughter such a wonderful early learning experience
