Ambrose Education and Care Services believe that children organise and make sense of their social worlds through play, with each service using innovative, play-based learning opportunities.

Daily programs at Ambrose Services are guided by children’s interests, abilities, knowledge and culture.

Our Early Larning Play-Based Approach in Action

Educators are guided by the Early Years Learning Framework 2.0, theorists, research, experience and most importantly by your children.

Your children will learn through “hands-on” experiences that involve doing, creating, experimenting, predicting, imagining, achieving, and investigating.

In 2023, Early Childhood Australia released its statement on Play. A commitment to protect and promote the right of every child in Australia to play.

Ambrose Educators upholds these principles and recognises play as every child’s right and a vital foundation for learning, development, and social connection.

Early Childhood Australia’s Statement on Play (2023)

• Play is essential and valuable in its own right and for children’s learning and development: every child has a right to have play in their life.

• Play builds each child’s capacity for communication and develops language and thinking skills.

• Through play, children develop a sense of self and the emotional and social competence to participate in relationships.

• Play connects children to their world, their cultural identities, to others and to other ways of knowing, doing and being.

• Children’s right to play is our collective responsibility: all adults have a role in understanding, protecting and valuing the importance of play for every child in every community.
