Aims and Objectives

Children at Pippins are encouraged to be independent, select the resources they require, make decisions, errors and choices by initiating their own play. Pippins promote kinaesthetic learning through discovery and experience using a planned balance of adult –directed, freely chosen or child-initiated activities.

We focus on developing children’s existing skills by building their knowledge using their interests, giving them opportunities to engage in playing, sharing, learning and working together.

A designated adult will be your child’s key worker who will bond, relate and form an attachment with your child, helping to develop and boost their self esteem, self reliance and independence by having someone they can depend upon and feel secure with.

Our staff are qualified, experienced positive role models and provide positive interaction and engagement with children. They have excellent observation, supervision and listening skills. Pippins actively promote and implement anti-discriminatory procedures.

Pippins respects individual parenting styles and respects the parent as the primary educator. We are proud of our strong relationships with parents.
