The aim of Junction Day Care Centre is to provide a stimulating, yet relaxed program that encourages the social, emotional, intellectual and physical development of each child and is informed by the pedagogical document How Does Learning Happen (HDLH for short). The program’s varied activities promote learning through play and hands on experience. Children are seen as competent, capable, curious and rich in potential, while the adults and educators in their lives are competent, capable and rich in experience to share. Flexibility in the program makes allowances for individual choices and needs. Parent Engagement is essential to the operations of Junction Day Care. Parent participation is considered an integral part of our daycare philosophy. This is achieved by participating on the Board of Directors or by contributing to the well being of the daycare by helping to coordinate special events, communicating with other parents and encouraging a feeling of ‘community’ among all the members. There are daily opportunities to connect with other parents and staff and to share resources with one another. Parents are welcomed into the classrooms to share their expertise and interests with the children (Pandemic restrictions notwithstanding).
