We find that our “littles” need to have a routine or schedule so that each child knows and understands what we will be doing next. With a philosophy of a play-based centre, we believe that there is so much to learn from play-based activities which can help with children’s cognitive, affective, and physical development.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”17271″ img_size=”full” onclick=”img_link_large” qode_css_animation=”element_from_fade” transition_delay=”0.2″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” background_color=”#ffffff” padding_top=”87″ padding_bottom=”80″ z_index=””][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

Along with curriculum at our centre, the teachers plan field trips within the community. As all children walk together, they make trips to the local library, open gym, and local parks. We send a newsletter and calendar home every month so parents are able to see what is happening.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”75″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
