Who We Are?
Service Philosophy
- Children are capable learners and thrive in a stimulating, nurturing and safe environment.
- The environment is the third teacher and needs to be natural, alive and stimulating. The environment should also be free of physical hazards, bullying and other forms of abuse.
- Play is children’s work and they need to be allowed time and space to explore, taking into consideration, their interests.
- Each child is unique and comes from a unique culture and family background and this should be respected, encouraged and celebrated.
- Parents are the first teachers and we need to respect their views and work collaboratively with them to achieve best outcomes for all children.
- We should have respect for the children, colleagues and families and ensure that there is open communication to minimise misunderstandings and conflict. Children and adults alike have a right to be heard.
- A culture of reflecting on the program and practices is encouraged so as to learn from mistakes and to improve on our practice.
- Open communication and mutual respect will lead to a good working partnership with the host school, stakeholders and the community.
