Early Years Learning Framework
Early Years Learning Framework
The National Quality Framework supports high-quality early childhood education and care across Australia, helping ensure children are cared for in environments that are safe, nurturing and well supported.
At Torrensville Community Childcare Centre, the National Quality Framework guides our everyday practice, from how we support children’s learning and wellbeing, to how we work in partnership with families. It provides clear standards around safety, relationships, educator qualifications and quality care, giving families confidence in the care their child receives.
We are committed to continually reflecting on and strengthening our practice. Our Quality Improvement Plan helps guide this process, ensuring we remain thoughtful, responsive and focused on creating the best possible experience for children and families.
Families are always welcome to speak with the Centre Director if they would like to learn more about our approach or how quality and care are supported at our centre.

Early Years Learning Framework
The Early Years Learning Framework guides how we support children’s learning and development from birth to five years. It recognises the early years as a vital time for growth and focuses on children feeling secure in their relationships, confident in themselves and supported to learn through play.
At Torrensville Community Childcare Centre, the EYLF shapes how we create meaningful learning experiences each day. Educators work closely with families to follow children’s interests, strengths and ideas, supporting learning that feels natural, engaging and responsive to each child.
The framework is built around the ideas of Belonging, Being and Becoming. Children develop a sense of belonging through relationships with family, educators and their community. They are supported to simply be – to play, explore, imagine and enjoy childhood in the moment. Through these experiences, children begin becoming confident, capable learners, developing their sense of identity and growing into who they are.
By recognising that children learn best through play and connection, the Early Years Learning Framework helps us support each child’s learning, wellbeing and development in ways that feel gentle, meaningful and true to who they are.
