Our approach

The Reggio Emilia Approach

Welcome to the Treasured Tots Early Education family! Did you know our approach to education is inspired by the amazing Reggio Emilia philosophy from Italy?

Progressive and cooperative

Our own special version

The Reggio Emilia Approach is all about progressive and cooperative early childhood education.

While we're not in the charming town of Reggio Emilia, we've woven our own special version of the approach tailored to our community's needs. Just like no two snowflakes are alike, no two Reggio Emilia-inspired communities look the same. It's all about embracing the unique needs and interests of our children, families, and educators.

Six ways we work with families

Let's dive in and discover what makes us unique

  • You're Family

    Parents and families are the heart of our community. At Treasured Tots, we see you as partners, collaborators, and advocates for your little ones. You're your child's first teacher, and we value your insights.

  • Learning Together

    Knowledge is power. We invite speakers to share insights on parenting, from nutrition to understanding children's behaviour. It's a chance to connect and learn together.

  • Let's Chat

    Communication is key! We love face-to-face conversations about your child's needs and daily adventures. From casual chats to more formal one-on-one meetings, we're here for you. We believe in openness and transparency.

  • Inclusive Planning

    We understand life gets busy, but we still want you involved! Even if your schedule is tight, we've got ways for you to participate in the planning and evaluation process.

  • Your Voice Matters

    Ever wanted to share your thoughts or ideas surrounding policies? Now's your chance! We regularly seek your feedback and have an annual policy review cycle. Your opinions shape our journey.

  • Stay in the Loop

    Changes happen, and we're here to keep you in the know. From industry updates to major shifts, we go the extra mile to ensure you're informed and your input is valued.

Our curriculum

Built on children's strengths

Our approach to curriculum development is reflective of our beliefs about children and childhood. It encompasses current educational theory and practices and acknowledges that each child has their own learning style, special talents, interests and needs. The curriculum is founded upon children's strengths and emerging interests and provides meaningful opportunities for children to explore, initiate, investigate, discover, interact, create, solve problems and engage in collaborative learning.

Family input is welcomed on our OWNA app and "all about me" forms. Tell us about something they have been learning at home, and you are contributing to our program.

We build on this input, as well as ideas and interests that come from the children, to form the basis of the program each day.
