 MISSION STATEMENT

Our mission each day is to…
“To build a foundation for learning that will enable us to be life-long learners. To give opportunities to explore and discover the world around us that will develop a sense of wonder and respect for our environment. To foster meaningful relationships that will encourage empathy and an understanding that we are all created unique in our own special way.”
 
Ballyglass Community Childcare Service is committed to providing a quality child-centred, play based
environment, which empowers young children to actively pursue their own learning.  

Values/Ethos

Ballyglass Community Childcare Service values the individuality of each child, the importance of play, local community liaison, the support of parents and families, and the human rights of children.

The Childcare Service endeavours to promote these values through partnership with parents, equality and respectfulness to all children, play based child centred activities, on-going training for adults in the provision and practice of early years care and education, and co-ordination with relevant statutory, community and voluntary organisations.

Aims

To help each child to learn and develop as an individual, providing a stimulating, broad and happy environment to do so.

Allow the children to be  

·         Happy and confident

·         Have a sense of security

·         Independent and interdependent

·         Share and care with others

·         Explore and question

·         Respectful of themselves and others

Objectives:

·         To provide a safe, secure, stimulating environment which embraces all children and                values their race, language, gender, age, disability, culture, class and religion.

·         To value all children as individuals and appreciate their uniqueness.

·         To value parents and carers as the primary educators of the child.

·         To have high expectations of the children and ourselves.

·         To ensure that all staff receives appropriate training and maintain high levels of                    practice.

·         To develop practice which is based on a philosophy of responsibility towards each                  other.

·         To enthuse the children about the extensive range of creativity and imagination                    experiences through the arts.

·         To develop practice which values the wider community as a means of adding to the                richness of our curriculum and centre.

·         To recognise children as an important part of our community.
