Internship Program
Learning with Children
At Circles & Cycles, adults are co-learners alongside children. Curiosity, observation, and reflection guide our work each day.
Our internship program offers an opportunity to experience a Reggio Emilia inspired learning environment while developing the skills needed to work thoughtfully with young children.
Over the course of the internship, participants spend time observing classrooms, reflecting with mentors, and gradually participating in the life of the school.
Reggio-Inspired Educator Internship Program
6 Months - July 2026 to Feb 2027
The Circles & Cycles Internship Program is a six-month immersive learning experience designed for individuals interested in early childhood education and the Reggio Emilia approach.
Interns learn through observation, reflection, collaboration, and hands-on facilitation, working alongside experienced educators in our learning environment.
The program supports interns in developing the foundational skills needed to become thoughtful, reflective facilitators of child-led learning.
Program Structure
he internship is organised into six learning phases, each building on the previous one.
Interns begin by learning to observe and understand children’s thinking, and gradually move toward designing learning experiences and facilitating sessions independently..
- Phase 1: Educator Workshops
- Phase 2: Observation & Reflection
- Phase 3: Provocations & Learning Invitations
- Phase 4: Documentation & Interpretation
- Phase 5: Facilitation & Child Study
- Phase 6: Inquiry Project & Portfolio
Mentorship & Reflection
Throughout the internship, interns participate in regular:
- coaching sessions
- reflective discussions
- feedback meetings with facilitators
These conversations help interns develop the habits of thoughtful observation, collaboration, and reflective teaching.

- strong observation and reflection skills
