We value and encourage parents' involvement in their children's learning and development.  We recognise and respect parents as prime carers and educators of their children.  Therefore, we work in partnership with our whole community to support each child as an individial and unique child.

We believe that the best services are child-centreed , that play is the foundation for a lifetime's learning and the welfare, well-being and protection of the child is paramount.  Our aim is that every child should reach their full potential, feel confident and become a happy, caring and responsible individual.

We endeavour to provide an atmosphere where every child and family feels included, valued, enabled and enriched.  We recognise the importance of preparing all children to live in a diverse society.  We aim to ensure that individial and cultural diversities are recognised, understood and respoected.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and we will strive within our whole community to ensure the safety of every child and give them the very best start in life.
