Wombat Room
(3 – 4 years)
2 educators / 17 children
Our experienced educators in the Wombat room support children to construct and contribute to learning; responding to the children’s ideas and play to scaffold and extend learning. They use various strategies including modelling, open ended questioning, demonstration, explanation, problem solving, and shared thinking to extend the learning and development of each child. Community engagement and collaboration is very active within the Wombat room; this extends life learning, skills and understandings beyond the centre.
Like the other four centre rooms, the Wombat room educators seek to provide a safe, healthy and hygienic environment.
