Incursions & Excursions at Tribe Early Learning

Enriching Your Child’s Experience

At Tribe Early Learning, we understand the importance of incursions and excursions in your child’s early education journey. These activities are more than just fun outings; they’re valuable learning experiences that help shape your little one’s understanding of the world.

What Are Incursions & Excursions in Early Learning?

Incursions bring exciting learning opportunities directly to our centres. From wildlife encounters to cultural performances, these on-site activities expose children to new experiences without leaving the familiar environment.

Excursions take your child beyond our centre’s walls, allowing them to explore the local community and beyond. These off-site adventures include visits to parks, gardens or local businesses.

Types of Incursions & Excursions We Do

We love provide our children with enriching experiences, that make their day a little bit more exciting. Here’s a glimpse of what we get up to:

Health and Well-Being

We welcomed the wonderful Daycare Dental team to our centre for some fun and educational dental check-ups. Our little ones had their smiles checked, learned about healthy eating, and practised good brushing habits using pretend toothbrushes and cuddly toys.

The team from Joondalup Martial Arts brought excitement to our Alkimos Centre, teaching our little ones martial arts basics and when to use them. The children had a blast practising safe moves, new skills and teamwork.

Nature and Environment

Our centres join Clean Up Australia Day to teach kids about environmental care, and visits from Westozwildlife bring learning to life with hands-on animal encounters.

Cultural Experiences

At Tribe, we celebrate diverse cultures like Diwali and offer prasad to the Perth Hindu Temple. We host special guests like Derek Nannup, a Noongar Elder, who shared Dreaming stories, music, and traditional tools with the children.

Community Connections

We love venturing out, whether it’s a walk in the park, a trip to the newsagent, or a visit to return items like an expired EpiPen to the pharmacy, teaching children real-world lessons along the way.

Parental Permissions and Consent

At Tribe Early Learning, we value your involvement in your child’s experiences. Before any incursion or excursion occurs, we provide detailed information about the activity and ask for your written consent. This process ensures you’re fully informed and comfortable with your child’s participation. We’ll share the educational goals, safety measures, and any specific requirements (such as appropriate clothing or items to bring). If you have any questions or concerns, our staff are always available to discuss them with you. Your child’s safety and your peace of mind are our top priorities, and we believe clear communication is key to a positive experience for everyone involved.
