Valuing Parents as
Partners |
Cub’s Den- The kids
studio is committed to ensure that parents are valued partners in their child’s
learning and development. Parents have the first and most significant influence on
their child’s learning, development, health, safety and wellbeing. As parents
understand their child the best they are free to share information about the child
with our counselor. This valued information is used to frame programs favourable for a
child's overall growth. A child’s learning and development starts and continues in the
context of their parents.
|
Purpose of the Program
|
The activities at our
studio are designed to reflect parental involvement and to develop awareness in
parents about the importance of play based learning. Working in partnership with
parents is vital at the early years foundation stage. Our programs give parents the
skills and confidence to support their child’s learning through play and everyday
activities, particularly while learning at home. This will enable parents to become
actively involved in their child’s learning and encourage play.

developing positive partnerships with parents by involving them in all decisions
affecting their child's development and learning. Their support can play a vital role
at all stages of education.The benefits include:

and socio-emotional, most essential for children’s readiness for future learning and
healthy development.

works well and best practice for their child.
