Our Philosophy

The MMK philosophy is underpinned by Belonging, Being and Becoming: The Early Years Learning Framework for Australia, with an emphasis on the eight practice principles for children’s learning and development in the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework:

• Reflective practice

• Partnerships with families

• High expectations for every child

• Respectful relationships and responsive engagement

• Equity and diversity

• Assessment for learning and development

• Integrated teaching and learning approaches, and

• Partnerships with professionals

Our aim at MMK is to develop a collaborative community of learners: children, families, teaching staff and the wider community, all of whom have valuable ideas, information and perspectives to exchange.
