Vale Village Childcare
Philosophy and Values
We at Vale Village Child Care Centre have developed a set of values that support leaders and educators to be aligned for the benefit of our children, families, and our community.
We stand by our values and relate them to everything we do and embed them in our everyday practices.
Save our World
We value our planet and recognise that we are all global citizens who need to work together and advocate sustainability. We teach our children to reuse, recycle, reduce, and repurpose while role modelling sustainable practices.
Igniting the learning Minds
We encourage children to learn at their own pace by providing them with the learning opportunities they need to develop and become confident and involved learners. We look at each child with a holistic approach and offer experiences that assist in each child’s individual learning.
Collaboration is key
Collaborating with our families and the wider community is important to us to participate and develop respectful and reciprocal relationships. We consider our educators as an extended part of the child’s family and community and believe that if we work together, we can build better outcomes for children.
We are One
We understand that everyone is different and unique, and we respect each child for who they are and what they bring to our environments. We create inclusive environments to cater for all abilities and cultures. We understand that all cultures, family structure, gender, abilities etc. are important to each person’s identity, including our own countries cultures for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and teach our children about our diverse world.
Together We Endeavour
As a collaborative and diverse team, we hold teamwork in high regard. We believe that working together, respecting other opinions, and effective communication is critical for providing a high-quality service.
Nurturing our future
We build strong, loving, and nurturing relationships with our children. We recognise that when children are nurtured and their wellbeing is supported, they thrive and become successful learners to become future leaders.
