Reggio Emilia Style Learning
The Reggio Emilia philosophy gave us the framework to begin re-imagining what our centre could become. We want to be so much more than just another daycare. That's why we call our centre an Early Learning Commons. It's a place for everyone; children, parents, and educators to see children, hear their voice, and write a community learning story together! Our aim is to partner with children in their early learning journey.
Along the way to rebranding we realized that both adults and children are citizens of our community with ideas, hopes, dreams and contributions. Not only are we a community consisting of people but we are grounded in the importance of place. We honour people individually and collectively and so we committed to create a space that empowers the people in our community to become confident and capable participants in our society.
Brave Spaces
We value brave spaces for child-led risky play where children make real time, critical thinking decisions and develop cognitive flexibility from choosing to participate in physical, emotional and mental challenges.
Maker's Spaces
We provide Maker's Spaces for innovation and industry where children are free to explore materials, find their creative voice, and discover their strengths.
Faith Spaces
We believe in authentic Faith Spaces where children have the opportunity to form an understanding of themselves in relationship to God, the world, and others. Together we will experience a developmentally appropriate discipleship rhythm.
