Belonging Being Becoming
The five learning outcomes are:
Children have a strong sense of identity
Children are connected with and contribute to their world
Children have a strong sense of wellbeing
Children are confident and involved learners
Children are effective communicators
Outcome One
Children have a strong sense of IDENTITY
: Identity is unique to each individual and defines who people are, what shapes their interests and how they come to view the people and events around them. Relationships form the foundations for identity & when children feel supported & safe within their environment their confidence grows and this inspires their learning journey. Children’s identity is shaped through positive experiences, transitions and interactions. Through these children begin to learn about the impact of their own values and beliefs on their world around them.
Outcome Two
Children are CONNECTED with and CONTRIBUTE to their world:
Children are connected with and contribute to their world; From birth, children learn to see themselves as individuals, accepting their uniqueness and the uniqueness of others. Children strive for connection and seek belonging - to people, country, place and communities that help them to learn about local ways of being. They learn about sharing common values, traditions and practices. As children experience settings beyond the home and kinship groups in which they live, their experiences, relationships and connections broaden.
Outcome Three
Children have a strong sense of WELLBEING:
From birth and throughout early childhood, the
foundations for physical, social, emotional and spiritual wellbeing are laid. Wellbeing means having good mental and physical health, including attachment, positive
affect and self-regulation. This means managing emotions productively, building resilience and persistence, being adaptable and confident, and experiencing feelings of satisfaction and happiness.
Outcome Four
Children are CONFIDENT and involved learners:
Children learn in the context of their families and communities. From birth to eight years, children continue to establish learning dispositions and patterns of engagement with others that profoundly influence their learning, behaviour, motivation, and capacity for being confident and involved life-long learners. Responsive learning relationships with all children support them to learn successfully. They are encouraged to be curious and enthusiastic about their learning.
Outcome Five
Children are effective COMMUNICATORS:
Children communicate from birth. Most children are innately social, creative and motivated to exchange ideas, thoughts, questions and feelings. They begin by using gestures, movement, visual and non-verbal cues, sounds, language and assisted communication to engage in the world and form relationships. Fundamental to this development is understanding how symbols and pattern systems work and how they can be used to engage others. From birth, intentional communication is strengthened and broadened. Children learn to take turns in communication exchanges through their relationships with responsive adults, exploring sound and movement patterns, singing songs, reading stories, playing games and recording their thoughts and ideas.
Lang Park and Acacia Park are places where educators, parents, and children learn together every day.
