Lifelong Learning Curriculum
Australia’s most advanced approach to early education.
Our exclusive Lifelong Learning Curriculum supports children from birth to school age, with research-based programs tailored to their developmental stage.
The curriculum draws on best practices from Attachment Theory, Relationship Practices, the Abecedarian Approach and Project-Based Learning - all aligned to the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF v2.0).
We support each child’s development across four key areas:
- Emotional confidence
- Social connection
- Physical health and wellbeing
- Foundational learning
Safety Above All Else
We uphold the safety, wellbeing and rights of every child in our care. Through regular audits, staff training, clear policies, and a culture of self-reporting and accountability, we ensure our centres operate to the highest standards of protection.
We take all concerns seriously and act decisively - because every child deserves to feel safe, supported, and seen.
Supporting Our Educators to Thrive
Because when educators feel supported, children thrive.
Through the Affinity Learning Academy, our teams receive access to nationally recognised qualifications, on-the-job training, and professional development - from Certificate III to Diploma and beyond.
We invest in career pathways, coaching and mentoring programs, and a strong national community of practice.
- Over 2,000 educators supported
- Industry-leading internal promotion rates
- Award-winning culture and learning programs
