Our Philosophy

Each child is a unique person with an individual personality, learning style and family background. We use children’s knowledge, individual strengths and interests, to plan our developmentally appropriate learning environment. Experiences through play are provided to help develop the social, emotional, cognitive and physical aspects of the child. All activities are designed to develop the children’s self esteem and positive feelings toward learning.

Social and emotional development
A great deal of learning takes place in a quality program. Our nursery playgroup provides an environment rich with tools for discovery and interactions with other children. This creates a strong foundation for further learning.

Cognition and general knowledge
At our nursery playgroup children have opportunities to interact with people, materials and to learn from their surroundings. With skilled and appropriate adult interaction, children learn to construct knowledge of patterns and relations, cause and effect, and ways of solving problems in everyday life.

Language development
Social interactions among children of varying ages and stages of development encourage early literacy skills. At our nursery playgroup children will get the opportunities to hold conversations with other children and adults, listen to read-aloud books and share family stories to promote literacy. Singing and dancing introduce other forms of literacy, as well as melody and of course fun.
