This unit of study assists students to develop the knowledge and skills to teach about health, safety, nutrition, and wellness at the early childhood level and to maintain safe health-promoting early childhood centres. It provides students with the skills to help young children gain a beginning understanding of the world around them in developmentally appropriate ways, and a beginning understanding of health, safety, nutrition, and wellness behaviours that promote long term health and wellness. Play and family involvement are emphasised in assisting this process. This unit also helps students develop knowledge and skills, plan and operate healthy and safe early childhood learning and care environments, including knowledge of relevant regulatory requirements.
