The families

We will treat every child and their family with the respect and consideration they deserve.  We strive to develop positive relationships based on respect, mutual trust and open communication, and with an understanding of the significant role families play in children’s learning. We acknowledge, respect and utilise the individual strengths and interests they bring to the centre and encourage them to share these skills within our environment. 

It is the aim of all staff to work in partnership with one another, and with families and management towards a shared goal – to provide an environment that welcomes all, is inclusive of children of all abilities and is accommodating to each child’s social and cultural backgrounds.  Activities, books, music, posters and other resources reflect our multicultural community and promote respect for all people.  Staff recognise and model behaviours that respect variations in children’s abilities, backgrounds and family structures and provide experiences that value and respect both similarities and differences.
