Our values
Based on the framework plan, we have narrowed down to three main values for our kindergarten:
Respect
We live it by…
Respecting each other – both adults and children
Speaking with children, not to them
Teaching children about equality, diversity and solidarity
Educating the children to respect the environment
Nurture
We live it by…
Teaching children to take care of themselves and each other
Growing children's self-esteem by listening to them and seeing them for who they are - their unique abilities and qualities
Developing children's empathy, compassion and social skills
Explore
We live it by:
Encouraging children to develop their curiosity, creative zest and sense of wonder
Encouraging play-based and interactive learning
Encouraging freedom of thought
Having fun!
Every child should feel seen and acknowledged for whom they are, and we teach them the value of each and every one of them within the group
