The Wonderschool Way

Our priorities

Respect, Connection and Awe

We believe and value the rights of all children and work first and foremost from a place of respect. We prioritise staying connected to children, their families, to our communities, to nature and to learning about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture and ways of being. The Wonderschool Approach focuses on building diverse, inclusive, and robust learning communities which are unique, and held together by common values and a sense of belonging and awe.

We draw on a number of influences, theories and practices that guide our approach to working with children at Wonderschool and our approach is ever-changing as we look to the latest research to be the best educators we can be.
