School Readiness Program

Our one-of-a-kind Learning to Fly program helps your child take the next step in their learning journey with confidence and curiosity.

Learning to Fly – Ready for School, Ready for Life

Learning to Fly is Insight Early Learning’s School Readiness Program for children in their final year before starting primary school. The program supports children to develop the confidence, independence and foundational skills they need for a smooth and positive transition to school.

Guided by the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and informed by the Australian Curriculum, Learning to Fly is delivered through play-based, intentional learning experiences that build on each child’s strengths, interests and individual development.

Play. Discover. Grow.

Building Confidence for School

Our focus is on developing the whole child, including:

Through meaningful play and strong relationships, children build resilience, develop a sense of responsibility and see themselves as capable learners.

Rich Learning Experiences

Children engage in a wide range of learning experiences that support their development across:

A Flexible, Continuous Learning Environment

Unlike sessional kindergarten, Insight’s School Readiness Program operates year-round with extended hours, meals included and consistent learning. This allows educators to develop a strong understanding of each child over time and provide continuity throughout their final year before school.

We’re committed to making the transition to school a rewarding and successful experience for your child. At Insight Early Learning, your child’s future is bright, and we’re excited to be part of their journey.
