Peter Pan Pre-School

Peter Pan Child Care Centre strives to provide excellent Early Childhood Education combined with the highest standard of quality care for the benefit of children, families and society. It is our belief that with our warm, supportive atmosphere and carefully planned program, the child's developing sense of independence, self-concept and self-esteem are supported.

The children's learning environment is designed to promote self-directed play. This is accomplished by establishing well-equipped learning centres. Learning centres allow children to select activities that best reflect their own individual interest, needs, and developmental levels.

Play is the business of childhood; when children build with blocks, explore their environment with all their senses, create with art material, listen to stories and communicate ideas and feelings, he/she is working.Play and learning are inseparable companions. Our program offers free play combined with teacher guided activities.

The goal at Peter Pan Child Care Centre is to help children develop a positive self-image. We hope to encourage children to be self directed and exhibit self-control. Young children due to their developmental age are not capable of understanding the ramifications of many of their behaviors therefore, they need to be encouraged to make good choices and to be prevented from harming themselves and others.

Please notify the staff if someone other than the family is picking up your child. Children will be not be released to someone other than you, without your written consent.
