Our Goals

Our Goals

We are committed to supporting children’s development by programming towards social, emotional, physical and intellectual areas of development in a warm, nurturing environment and strive to meet and exceed parents’ expectations. We aim to:

	Recognise and respect the uniqueness and potential of each child and to give children the opportunity to express their individuality.
	Allow each child to achieve their very best, based on their readiness and willingness to achieve.
	Assist children to develop to their full potential by providing planned and spontaneous experiences, which are developmentally appropriate, and by providing learning opportunities for individuals, small groups and the whole group.
	Encourage children to work independently, as well as being part of a team, and to approach all tasks with a positive attitude.
	Encourage children to develop self-control and to accept responsibility for their actions.
	Encourage and facilitate social relationships among children and to teach children to respect the rights of others.
	Foster trusting, open relationships with our children and parents. Parents are welcome at Rainbow Haven at any time and their expectations are respected and incorporated into the programs through open communication. To keep parents fully informed about the progress of their child.
	Work closely with other community organisations and professionals for the benefit of the children, parents, staff and community.
