There’s no better feeling than knowing your child is excited, confident, and ready for school. That’s why at Edge Early Learning, our educational program guides and nurtures your child’s curiosity, so they’re preparing from the start. It’s part of a vibrant learning journey that goes beyond the foundations of The Early Years Learning Framework for Australia V2.0 national curriculum. We call it the Teach A Rainbow Education Program.
Our role and philosophy as co-guardians of your child’s learning journey is to do so much more than build upon their early literacy, numeracy, and creative thinking.
At Edge Early Learning, we’ve identified 11 key learning areas that our Teach A Rainbow program is developed around to help ensure we nurture the whole child. Each plays a significant role in truly fostering a sense of exploration, self-expression, and connection whether that be with friends, teachers, community or environment.
It’s these key learning areas that we’ve found to be transformative in the way your child explores, engages, and contributes to their community.

By taking these into account, we can develop the most effective way to teach your child in full colour. Ultimately, customising our program specifically to their needs.
With 70 childcare, kindergarten, and preschool centres across Queensland, South Australia, and the ACT our Family Engagement Team can help match you with a local centre that best suits your needs.
