Keeping your little ones engaged in play all day is no easy task. With our extensive range of resources, instruments, and community resources, children will be involved in many music, dance, and dramatic play experiences. Dramatic play creates an understanding of the real world and assists children to take their knowledge from home into play. Dancing assists with gross motor skills, coordination, and retelling cultural stories. It helps with forming their identity.

In 2022, the Australian Government Department of Education updated the Early Years Learning Framework (Early childhood curriculum framework) to include Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives into everyday practice in early learning settings. Tralee Gardens has always implemented many elements of the program to support children’s knowledge of Aboriginal culture and perspectives. This creates a respectful environment for children to grow in their knowledge of the world around them.
