Philosophy

At The Kids Castle, we believe that children are capable, competent & active learners.

We strive to support their growth and development by creating a safe and nurturing environment based on values and respect, where each child can participate in activities to enhance their individual development.

The Kids Castle provides a happy, stimulating, free-choice environment that is inviting, comfortable and inclusive of all children regardless of additional needs, diverse cultures or different beliefs.

Our children are supported to engage freely in play experiences in a natural and creative way. They are also encouraged to initiate or contribute their ideas to the centre program.

The Kids Castle is a warm place where confidence is built, healthy forms of expression/ emotions are fostered and social skills are developed.

We aim to be supportive of all families and develop positive relationships between Staff, Children, Families, School and the wider Community.
