Expressive Steppers

We aim to nurture you child’s love of learning through a stimulating Literacy based program, Expressive Steppers. We believe the experiences children have during their first years of life can significantly enhance the development of their creativity. Our Expressive Steppers program is introduced to all children as we believe in providing a literacy rich environment for children as young as 6 weeks old.

Regular daily interactions, including reading, storytelling and singing, promote an enjoyment and love of language while also developing phonological awareness and concepts of print. As children engage with drawing, painting and mark-making they are developing their emergent writing skills and beginning to recognise symbols convey meaning. Our literacy rich environments include writing implements, books, signs, labels and posters for children to recognise print has differing purposes and to encourage children to both interpret and construct various forms of print.
