\u00a0We believe children need to be given the opportunity to express themselves through play.\u00a0 Play allows children expression of personality and uniqueness, it enhances children\u2019s curiosity and creativity, play can enable children to make connection between prior experiences and new learning, and it assists children to develop relationships and concepts and stimulates a sense of wellbeing.<\/p>\n
\u00a0We believe families are the first teachers in life and that privilege deserves recognition and respect.\u00a0\u00a0 Therefore, we need to be mindful of our family\u2019s culture, beliefs and values in their children\u2019s learning and offer support in their parenting practices and their wellbeing.\u00a0 We believe when families continue all forms of learning in their home environment this reinforces the message from the educators and gives the child confidence in their ability to learn.<\/p>\n
\u00a0Safety is of the upmost importance when it comes to caring and educating children.\u00a0 We must advocate for the children where possible and pay attention to our duty of care.\u00a0 We do this by following confidentiality practices, maintaining ratios to provide our best possible supervision and assisting to encourage personal health and wellbeing.\u00a0 We believe that each educator is unique and by contributing to the planning process we end up with a varied and inclusive program.<\/p>\n\u00a0Parents Voice:\n
\u00a0I love the structure that is provided for the children.\u00a0 I feel it sets them up better for school rather than open play all day.<\/p>\n
It is important for the children to feel comfortable at kinder and to be able to share their feelings.<\/p>\n
I love how easy and open the educators are to talk to whether I have made an appointment or if I just need five minutes after session, there\u2019s always a resolution before I leave.<\/p>\n
When you first walk into the kindergarten it is presented beautifully, I feel this is important as it makes the children excited to go to kinder and play.<\/p>\n\u00a0Children\u2019s Voice:\n
\u00a0I love that the teachers make me feel good by giving a big cuddle if I\u2019m feeling sad or missing my Mum.<\/p>\n
We need to share at kinder and include everybody in our play<\/p>\n
We need to make sure use our words and talk nicely to our friends.<\/p>\n
I like it when we ask for a toy from the shed or the store room to play with and the teachers get it out for us.<\/p>","nqs_badge":false,"tour_available":false,"tour_booking_link":null,"notes_for_shinebright":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/centre\/183","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/centre"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/centre"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/centre\/183\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":514,"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/centre\/183\/revisions\/514"}],"acf:attachment":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/182"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/181"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/180"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/179"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/178"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/177"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/176"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/175"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=183"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"service-region","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/service-region?post=183"},{"taxonomy":"service-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.thrivewebdesign.com.au\/shinebright\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/service-type?post=183"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
