COME AND STAY FOR THE KIDSPLAY DIFFERENCE

Our Incursions

Bringing the world into our classrooms

At KidsPlay ELC, incursions provide children with exciting opportunities to learn through new experiences. By meeting and engaging with new people at our childcare centre, children develop important social skills, confidence, and curiosity.


Incursions expose children to different scenarios, cultures, and perspectives, encouraging them to think critically, express their ideas, and explore new interests. During these activities at KidsPlay Childcare, children are encouraged to describe what they enjoy, ask questions, and reflect on their experiences, helping them develop communication and problem-solving skills.

Building Confidence and Social Skills

Through incursions, children also interact with people of different ages and backgrounds, which supports empathy, respect, and understanding of diversity. We introduce new cultures, histories, and traditions in fun and age-appropriate ways — including songs, dances, foods, and clothing — allowing children to explore the world around them while learning through play.

By participating in incursions, children develop creativity, adaptability, and a love of learning, discovering new ways to approach challenges and celebrate the richness of the world around them. It is one of the many reasons families consider us the best early learning centre Melbourne has to offer.
