Early Years Learning Framework
The Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) is a government initiative that outlines a national curriculum for children in the preschool years in early childhood settings. City Kids Early Learning Centre has embraced this initiative, embedding it into our curriculum.
The EYLF is an ‘outcomes based’ curriculum, including outcomes based around ‘identity’, ‘community’, ‘wellbeing’, ‘communication’ and ‘learning’. We actively promote and plan activities based around these outcomes, in collaboration with children and families.

Assessment and Rating
The National Quality Standard (NQS) sets a national benchmark for all early childhood education and care services in Australia. Services are governed by the Education and Care Services National Law and the ratings process promotes a sense of transparency and the aim for ongoing quality.
City Kids is proud to have achieved the rating of:
