Comments

5210 information package was discussed today and provided. The Active Play Standards of Practice was discussed and the upcoming requirement for policies on active play and screen time. The licensee was seen to engage with the children at their physical level, promote and guide problem solving, use guiding and caring techniques that are age and developmentally appropriate "do you need a hug?", "maybe you can play there", "let's use our words". There were a wide variety of developmentally appropriate materials available and teacher made materials that meet the intent of the Early Learning Framework. There were open ended art activities seen, magnetic materials, block materials, dramatic play activities and many sensorial materials. Thank you for your assistance with this inspection.
