Realising the Ambition
Realising the Ambition is the updated version of the document Building the Ambition. It presents key information about child development including the interactions and experiences we must provide children to facilitate their growth.
For the Learning Areas, we have drawn inspiration from Realising the Ambition “pocket cards” that were sent to us by customers to show what they like and, in some cases, are already using.
These Learning Areas are:
Wellbeing
Movement and coordination
Confidence
Literacy learning
Numeracy and mathematical learning
As always, we are open to feedback! If you'd like to share some with us please send an email to support@famly.co with your thoughts.
