All children have equal access to and participate in our meaningful programs. All children's abilities are considered so each child can develop to their fullest potential. We make changes to our daily program to meet the needs of children in our care. Depending on the support required, strategies and adaptations are incorporated into the daily program, along with support staff from outside agencies.
The Family Place strongly believes in the partnership between home and centre. You have shared your most precious gift with us and we want and need to share your family's cultural, social and parenting ideas in order to create the beautiful tapestry that is our vision. We also use outside supports for our program and can help you access family support from the community as needed.
