Our Philosophy
We believe:
that children learn by experimentation, exploration and questioning, and from good role models. The environment should provide these experiences to enable all chldren to grow up as competent, confident learners and communicators.
that individuality, independence and good self esteem are encouraged by positive interactions and sensitive intervention. Children need to be able to develop their own strengths, interests and abilities to acquire a sense of achievement and an understanding of who they are and how they are valued.
in the provision of an environment which ensures every child is nurtured in a way that cares for them as a whole person, developing a secure sense of belonging.
that the children's family background, gender and ethnicity should be viewed positively within the kindergarten enabling respect, dignity and fairness for all.
that we should provide an environment where reciprocal and responsive relationships with teachers, parent/caregivers and the wider community are recognised.
