Our Philosophy
We believe that children, parents and families should be made to feel welcome, supported and respected. We aim to establish high quality care with educational programs based on children’s individual needs by working in partnership with the parents, as the child’s main educators. We believe that children learn through play and encourage the children’s learning by providing stimulating play environments. By extending children’s experiences, skills and knowledge, we aim to foster each child’s social, emotional, language, physical and intellectual development. We value the importance of Language and Communication (including Literacy and Numeracy) and social and emotional development. Planet consistently demonstrates the best practice in the provision of the education of children in our care, in accordance with the Australian Children’s Education & Care Quality Authority, National Quality Framework and the Early Years Learning Framework.

Learn Through Play
Planet provides a unique educational experience for the children in our community. We adopt a hands-on approach to discovering and 'giving back' the world around us. Our Educators facilitate daily excursions with the children to see places and people in our community. Planet also engages in the 'Transition to School' program with Coledale School, where our older children are given the most authentic induction to Primary School as possible. Activities include utilising the school's: Library, the Garden, the Whale Watching platform, the Eco Frog ponds and we even have our own vegetable patch on the school grounds.
