Grow Cambridge ECE

General information

What we aim to provide is a childcare and kindergarten service that is an “organic type education”, inspiring and innovative with warm caring and highly responsive teaching from birth to five.
We will provide a really boutique-feeling, home-like quality environment for our littlest ones and ensure that if they have older siblings, we can cater for the whole family. Our kids will get the best available to set them up for their ‘formal’ education.
Within high quality design, play spaces aid a feeling of connection within the Centre. Children can be working independently yet feel secure and part of a bigger picture. Teachers within teaching teams will be able to work collegially and yet independently (with few or small groups of children). Using space and light the centre provides a welcoming feel, with teachers utilising opportunities for people who arrive to feel at home. Children who are enrolled will be "part of the family" and due to smaller group size take advantage of connectivity with their siblings and also other attending families.
From Management through to cleaners: a huge importance is placed on everyone giving/receiving high quality service and playing a part in the foundations of the next generation of Kiwis.

Facilities available to enrolled families such as swimming and excursions will be embedded into regular programming. Children will be given regular "grass roots" opportunities, sustainable living and connections to the environment woven into the programme (such as gardening, recycling, water conservation and perhaps solar energy). Technology will be creatively implemented into daily routine, child play based learning, child/family planning, programme design and link with the wider world and local community- possibly a BYOD with enrolment scheme. Spacious - reflective of the outdoor living spaces with lots of room to get active (including bike areas, sandpit/construction and challenging physical development equipment).
