-
Every child has the right to feel welcome, valued, and included. We create space for each child’s unique experiences, identities, and ways of being.
-
We honour our island home through daily outdoor play, exploration, and learning that reflects the rhythms of the natural world. We recognize Indigenous peoples as original knowledge keepers and continue to learn from and with the land.
-
Children are at the centre of the learning journey. Through play, curiosity, and exploration, we support the development of language, relationships, and independence.
-
Families and educators work together to support each child. We value open communication and strong partnerships within our community, and with partner organizations.
-
We support children in building respectful relationships, understanding their emotions, and caring for each other and the world around them.
-
We support ongoing professional growth, work to be exemplary employers, and grow to meet the ongoing needs of our community.
