FEELING OF VALUE
We acknowledge and value that everyone that is part of our centre community is important and we understand that everyone brings their own “baskets of knowledge”.
Everyone’s mana manaaki is valued and upheld within our space.
We believe in the importance of everyone having a place and being valued for who they are.
We believe in being an inclusive environment where everyone has equitable opportunities to thrive.
RESPONSIVE
We are responsive to the cues from our children, the needs within our team and the teachable moments we can use to enrich learning further.
‘HUNDRED LANGUAGES’
We are open and mindful to what children have to say and we hear, see, listen and respond through a variety of ways.
We acknowledge the contributions of our teachers, parents/whānau, their children and our wider ACG team in developing this philosophy.
