Wisdom

At Insight Early Learning our teams deeply value community, ensuring that our curriculum and practices seamlessly connect with the wisdom shared by our children, families, community and educators. We believe that every voice, from our children and families to educators and the wider community, brings a unique perspective to the educational journey. We value the continuity and richness of local Wisdom shared by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders and use this wisdom to guide us. We are guided by the wisdom learnt from the past and use this to inform our future. Our commitment is to learn from and integrate this collective wisdom into our educational program and practices. 

We respect children's innate sense of curiosity and view children as capable and competent learners. Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed to harness the power of play, nurturing growth, exploration, engagement, and creativity.  In our pedagogical practice, we advocate for an approach that encourages children to learn from positive experiences, promoting resilience, and fostering a culture that values a growth mindset.
