We believe:

​

• In honouring the diversity of culture, values and beliefs of other people,

• In valuing each child as a unique person and encouraging them to develop positive self-esteem in a supportive, secure and healthy environment,

• In the importance of committed and caring staff and encourage a stable, lasting relationship between them and the centre,

• In parents and educators building positive, long-term relationships and that families are given opportunities to participate in the program according to their needs and interests,

• In playing an important part in the local community through the provision of flexible care services,

• In a sustainable environment that will seek to stimulate each child to appreciate their natural surroundings and its resources,

• In an environment that is open ended, stimulating, nurturing and adaptable to the individual needs of each child,

• In nurturing creativity and spontaneity and developing a sense of belonging and community within the learning environment.

 

Our children:

​

Introduced to an educational play-based program to assist each child to grow and develop at their own pace with the guidance and support by all educators:

​

• Free to express their feelings and interests,

• Show confidence, curiosity, and imagination,

• Are independent and have good self-esteem,

• respect for themselves and others,

• are friendly and show caring behaviour,

• show their full potential both emotionally and physically,

• foster and reinforce self-control,

• have an understanding and appreciation of the rights and feelings of other people.

 

We support our beliefs through:

​

• Implementation of a child-centric program curriculum in line with the Early Years Learning Framework, where programs reflect children’s needs, interests and strengths so that they are actively involved in their learning,

• A strong emphasis on the concepts of Belonging, Being and Becoming.
