Philosophy in relation to children
The Centre aims to give children access to a variety of developmentally appropriate opportunities and experiences. These experiences will develop self-esteem, independence and quality life skills. The Centre emphasises respect for others and self and the acceptance of similarities and differences such as gender, culture, abilities and disabilities. The daily experiences for the children reflect their interests on an individual and group level.
