age and more importantly learn how to think. Creative thinking skills are a huge part of this program and we capitalise on their natural curiosity and stimulate natural intelligence and talents to grow,” says Victoria.

Educators trained in the Victoria Carlton methods use specialised multisensory games, activities and equipment from around the globe to stimulate natural intelligence and help every young learner to be poised for school success.

Victoria recently authored the book All Kids Are Smart and truly believes all children can be taught to increase intelligence and develop their enormous potential.

In this program, children are given brain stimulation exercises and helped to access whole-brain learning. Children also improve upon their ability to focus and concentrate.

This program is available in Bayswater at ICE (9271 4200) and Cockburn Central at AGAPE (9414 7191). Both centres also run very structured, creative, fun-filled courses to help primary and high school students reach their full potential.

When a student is learning a new technique or training for their next belt, there is a level of intensity and focus that can’t be seen elsewhere. When they make a breakthrough and achieve a new goal, the confidence and self-discipline instilled is something that can’t be taught in a classroom. It is a completely different approach to learning.

DNA Gene testing What can my DNA tell me?

here’s something for everyone to enjoy at the Let’s Celebrate Belmont Festival in November - a month full of events not to be missed!

here are obvious genes we inherit such as height, hair colour or your grandma’s nose but what about the genes that influence health and disease. Do you just wait for them to reveal themselves?

The festival is held at various locations throughout the City of Belmont featuring events, activities and live performances. Highlights of the festival include Jazz in the Park and Movies under the Stars, a free outdoor family movie night. The festival finale will feature an international food festival, free live entertainment and fireworks spectacular.

The current research is telling us we can use food, diet, exercise and lifestyle to help manipulate gene expression to enhance your health. The good news is that you can test your genes through Fitgenes. Your gene profile can assist you to understand how much coffee is ok, what the best type of exercise is, what weight management strategies are right for you, how you tolerate sugar and carbohydrates and more.

Most festival events and activities are free, or in some cases a nominal fee may apply. The Let’s Celebrate Belmont Festival is proudly brought to you by the City of Belmont – the City of Opportunity and supported by Perth Airport, Belmont Forum and Country Wide Insurance Brokers.

Kids In Perth – The Parents’ Paper, November 201505

Childcare & ELC Feature Promoting play with purpose

eerilinga Early Learning Program is a quality, play-based pre-kindy for families wishing to enhance their child’s early learning and development. The program promotes play with purpose and gives children the space to discover for themselves.

Each learning environment promotes free play for a different purpose, encouraging children to actively engage with people and things in the world around them.

arly learners benefit hugely from the Victoria Carlton approach, which encourages high educational standards as well as thinking skills and creativity. Children learn to read, write, spell and understand maths skills and parents receive written feedback on the program and their child’s progress.

Skilled educators observe, ask questions, listen, wait, admire the endeavour, respect the ingenuity and use the experience to inform their practice. Enrol your child in Meerilinga Early Learning Program for 2016 and give them the opportunity to develop their social skills and independence. Visit www.meerilinga.org.au for more information.

Victoria’s licensees are taught to use a series of exercises that improve brain integration and mind-body interaction. These are essential skills that need to be developed for maximum learning to take place. These Programs also integrate the Multiple Intelligence research from Howard Gardner at Harvard University. Victoria also trains teachers in schools to use these programs, which covers pre-school, primary and early secondary level.

Give your two year old a good start

t two, a child’s world is full of big ideas. They are eager to use their newly-discovered independence, which can lead to some very determined behaviour. Your child’s interests and skills become clearer at this age, and you can use these emerging interests to help them learn about new concepts and ideas.

Victoria Carlton Early Learners Programs Book your child into intensive, multisensory, learning sessions that will stimulate their inherent intelligence and help them become creative, flexible thinkers.

• Role play and dress-ups are a great way to practice getting along with others. It also helps children develop a strong sense of self, reasoning skills and imagination.

Goodstart do all this and more. Their qualified educators spend time getting to know your child so they can develop a play-based

Programs run during school terms and also during school holidays. For information and bookings contact ICE at 08 9271 4200 or Agape at 08 9414 7191.

This research based approach international program is now available in Perth.

Ways to encourage learning:

• Puzzles, block and construction games create opportunities for children to solve more complex problems – and it encourages perseverance and patience.

In Perth, the Victoria Carlton programs are available in Bayswater (ICE) and also in Cockburn Central (Agape).

LAS/NOV14

Play is how children learn in a freely chosen, personally directed and naturally motivated way. Educators support children to explore freely by providing a wide selection of environments and inspiration. This allows them to explore and develop ideas and experience a sense of achievement in their own discoveries.
