 A Child’s Journey at Rise and Shine

At Rise and Shine, children grow with confidence, families feel supported, and every child is prepared for school and beyond.

Every child at Rise and Shine follows a journey designed to nurture their growth, confidence, and love of learning. From the moment they join us, children are welcomed into an environment where play is purposeful, support is individualised, and every day is filled with opportunities to shine.

  1. Welcome and Assessment
  • On enrolment, every child takes part in an initial play-based assessment.
  • This helps us understand their strengths, interests, and areas for growth, so we can create an Individual Learning Plan tailored just for them.
  1. Learning Through Our Cornerstone
  • Daily activities are guided by our four Cornerstone pillars: Mind & Body, Developmental Skills, Community Participation, and Outdoor Discovery.
  • Each month, children explore a Big Ideas project (like Sea Animals, Gardening, or Community Helpers), bringing learning to life through hands-on, engaging experiences.
  1. Intentional Teaching Through Play
  • Children enjoy fun, play-based experiences that are carefully designed to build skills across all developmental learning domains — from communication and social-emotional learning to physical and academic readiness.
  1. Extra Support When Needed
  • With full-time developmental specialists on site, children receive extra help when they need it most.
  • For eligible children, Developmental Learning Blocks provide focused, short-term support with clear goals and regular progress updates.
  1. Ongoing Growth and Celebration
  • Educators and specialists regularly update children’s Individual Learning Plans to reflect their progress.
  • Families receive updates, photos, and stories through Xplor, as well as face-to-face meetings to celebrate milestones.
  • By the time children leave Rise and Shine, they are confident, resilient, and ready for school — with the skills they need to thrive.
