The Early Learning STEM Australia Programme is designed to complement the Australian Curriculum outcomes using the lens of spatial reasoning and logical reasoning and aims to improve STEM literacy and numeracy in Australian schools.
The Let's Count programme is an early mathematics programme for children aged three to five which is aligned to the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). It supports educators and parents to develop the mathematics skills of the children in their care by noticing, exploring, and talking about mathematics using everyday activities.
Little Scientists helps early learning educators to build their skills and confidence in understanding STEM ideas and concepts, so that they can lead fun and inquiry-based learning activities, using everyday materials with Early Years children.
Internationally, it is recognised that innovation and science are critical for the creation of new growth sources and economic prosperity. The focus on children’s acquisition and development of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) skills for the future workplace is beginning increasingly early.
