Early Childhood Education
Parnell Trust is well established as a provider of top quality childcare and early childhood education in Central Auckland.
Our Philosophy |
We believe that all children should have the opportunity to grow up as competent and confident learners and communicators; healthy in mind, body and spirit; secure in their sense of belonging and in the knowledge that they make a valued contribution to society. Our education programme is designed to guide children through the early developmental stages that provide the foundation for lifelong learning and success.
Our staff strive to:
- provide an environment where children learn and develop at their own level and to their own potential
- provide a safe and stimulating environment where children can have fun
- ensure children and parents are respected and valued as individuals
- expose children to a rich environment which acknowledges New Zealand's cultural heritage
- consult with and involve parents in the educational programme of their child and promote ongoing communication between staff and parents
- employ competent educators who are knowledgeable about children's development and the Early Childhood curriculum Te Whaariki
- provide an environment of mutual respect between parents and staff
- reflect and respect the different cultural values of the families that attend the centre.
