Our BUILD early years framework
Belonging
Belonging is the basis of living a fulfilling life. Children feel they belong because of the relationships they have with their family, community, culture and place.
Being
Being is about living here and now. Childhood is a special time in life and children need time to just “be” – time to play, try new things and have fun.

Becoming
Becoming is about the learning and development that young children experience. Children start to form their sense of identity from an early age, which shapes the type of adult they will become.
