Excellence in early childhood education and teaching

Mia Mia serves families of the local community and Macquarie University staff and students. Our specialist team provides a happy and stimulating learning environment for children from six weeks old to when they start school – enriching all who take part in its caring, welcoming and diverse community.

Mia Mia is the demonstration program for the School of Education and provides students, researchers, academics and other educators with premium opportunities for educational training, mentoring, observation and research.

Our commitment

We offer a high-quality program based on the intellectual pursuit of excellence in early childhood education and care through collaborative and individual research and practice.

We are committed to:

• upholding the rights of the child
• engaging children meaningfully in experiences that promote their desire for learning and spark their curiosity.

Children use these skills to explore an environment that supports the development of positive relationships and nurtures each individual's sense of belonging, being and becoming.

We also foster mutually respectful partnerships with families in the context of a culturally diverse community.
