Our Philosophy
At Stratford Central Kindergarten we value:
Relationships that are:
- Warm and trusting
- Non-judgmental and that offer a secure sense of belonging where we listen to the points of view of others while respecting their values, ideas and beliefs
An Environment that:
- Is stimulating and inviting which promotes positive interactions and discovery
- Has the flexibility to change to support current interests
- Supports an awareness of what is taking place in the world around us
- Offers opportunities for children to take risks as they set their own challenges
- Encourages children to take ownership of their own learning
Teachers encourage and support children to:
- Make choices that empower them to make their own decisions, solve problems and develop skills at their own pace
- Recognise and acknowledge how they are feeling and express their emotions to others
- Deal with such emotions in an appropriate way
