Education at Launceston Grammar can start from as young as 3 years of age. Our Early Learning programme offers a supportive, caring, nurturing, and enthusiastic introduction to school. We believe that children have unlimited potential and are capable, curious and able to investigate and explore their thoughts and ideas.

Our curriculum is based around the Early Years Learning Framework of Australia with influence from the Reggio Emilia philosophy. We encourage and support questioning, thinking and discussions between children and with teachers. We view learning as an exciting, creative, inquiry-based process.

Project work is a major part of our curriculum. These are either driven by children's interests of initiated by teachers. They take in all areas of learning, including expressive and visual arts, literacy, numeracy and science.

There is a strong emphasis on developing early English and Maths concepts through enjoyable, interactive, thoughtful and well-planned activities.

The children's work is documented in a variety of ways, including photographs, written transcripts or stories and conversation, painting, drawings, sculptures and other art form
