Mission

Daily we will …..

  • Establish an open door policy for parents which allows for communication about the needs of the child and facilitates parental engagement with the child’s education.
  • Work with other nurseries, professionals and trainers, collaborating for the benefit of the child to provide a positive learning environment which meets the needs of each individual child.
  • Develop resilient children who are curious and willing to have a go.
  • Create an environment which is resourced to stimulate the child’s curiosity and which responds to the child’s individual interests.
  • Model positive relationships, behaviours and attitudes with every member of the school community.
  • Endeavour to know and celebrate each individual child.
