OUR SERVICE STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY

 

We aim to provide quality care for children and young people, which allows them to reach their full

potential, which in turn complements care within the family and supports

Parents/caregivers, Educators, and the community.

 

VISION

A centre where children, young people, their families, and Educators flourish.

 

VALUE STATEMENT

Excellence: We demonstrate professional and educational excellence, by

continuously improving our curriculum, practices, and relationships

Inclusion: We value all individuals and embrace diverse backgrounds, beliefs, and

cultures

Community: We recognise the interconnectedness between our services, our families,

our local community, and the community of educators

Sustainability: We deliver a service that is environmentally, financially, and socially

sustainable

 

PRIORITIES

There are five priorities which will guide management efforts and activities to achieve

the vision. Each priority area has a specific focus and aim for what can be achieved while our children are attending OSHC.

 

Curriculum & philosophy: We will develop, use, and refine an educational

philosophy to provide the best outcomes for our children and opportunities for our

educators.

Governance: We will review the current governance framework, documenting and

streamlining practices and processes to ensure the service is operationally,

environmentally, financially, and socially sustainable.

 

Community engagement: We will strengthen our partnerships with families, local

schools, community organisations and businesses, because the centre, our educators

and families are an important part of the local community.

 

People & Place: We will ensure our educators are trained and supported, and our

children and families are welcomed in a stimulating, safe, learning environment.
