Our Program

The Floorbook Approach is an innovative child-led approach to observation, documentation and planning which is now implemented in settings around the world. By listening to children and identifying their interests we can create a unique learning opportunity which excites and interests children.

Floorbooks are blank books where we can record children’s voices and their ideas to use in our planning. Group writing in a Floorbook allows shared thinking as children recall each others ideas and record them through writing, diagrams and photographs. This child centred approach records the evidence of the process of play and the learning that comes from it.’   Claire Warden (Mindstretchers) 

​

We have Floorbooks available in all rooms for Educators and children to document learning experiences together. These may be spontaneous learning based input from the child, family and/or educator or a project the children and educator's are completing together... the opportunities are endless! childcare centre near heidelberg
