For Educators
Out of the Box is committed to creating rich arts experiences that support children’s learning, development and wellbeing. The festival program is designed to complement classroom learning, providing meaningful opportunities for children to explore ideas, stories, cultures and perspectives through high-quality live and participatory arts experiences.
The Festival program is tailored to the developmental needs of 0-8 year olds and our Creative Learning team are here to support Educators curate a rich, unique creative experience that places children, childhood and their learning at the centre of your day out.
The Out of the Box program is aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) V2.0 and the Australian Curriculum Version 9.0, with curriculum connections across The Arts, English, Science, Humanities and Social Sciences (HASS), and Health and Physical Education, and strong links to Cross-Curriculum Priorities such as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures.
