OUR SERVICE STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY
We aim to provide quality care for children and young people, which allows them to reach their full
potential, which in turn complements care within the family and supports
Parents/caregivers, Educators, and the community.
VISION
A centre where children, young people, their families, and Educators flourish.
VALUE STATEMENT
Excellence: We demonstrate professional and educational excellence, by
continuously improving our curriculum, practices, and relationships
Inclusion: We value all individuals and embrace diverse backgrounds, beliefs, and
cultures
Community: We recognise the interconnectedness between our services, our families,
our local community, and the community of educators
Sustainability: We deliver a service that is environmentally, financially, and socially
sustainable
PRIORITIES
There are five priorities which will guide management efforts and activities to achieve
the vision. Each priority area has a specific focus and aim for what can be achieved while our children are attending OSHC.
Curriculum & philosophy: We will develop, use, and refine an educational
philosophy to provide the best outcomes for our children and opportunities for our
educators.
Governance: We will review the current governance framework, documenting and
streamlining practices and processes to ensure the service is operationally,
environmentally, financially, and socially sustainable.
Community engagement: We will strengthen our partnerships with families, local
schools, community organisations and businesses, because the centre, our educators
and families are an important part of the local community.
People & Place: We will ensure our educators are trained and supported, and our
children and families are welcomed in a stimulating, safe, learning environment.
