We believe …

  • that every child is a confident and competent active learner.
  • that nurturing equality and diversity is important.
  • that children have rights and their voices should be heard.
  • that developing a collegial, open and honest partnership with parents is essential to children’s well-being.
  • in active learning through play and hands-on experiences.
  • that children learn through doing things themselves.
  • in creating relevant and meaningful play experiences for children.
  • that observation and documentation are important tools that enable us to recognize emergent interests and learning with the children.
  • by creating time and space to reflect on our practice enables us to create an emergent play-based environment for the children in our learning environments.
