Bush Kidz 1 Centre Overview
Bush Kidz Child Care Centre philosophy is founded on the concept that children learn through play. Bush Kidz Centre 1 is a 75 place 4 room centre catering for children from 6 weeks to 5 years. We will also cater for a small group of before and after school care children. Our centre is set on 5 acres of property and has convenient access to the Warrego and Brisbane Valley highways. The centre opened in April 2005.
Internally features of the centre include:-
- Fully air conditioned in all rooms.
- Bright, child friendly decor with colours that are calming and not overpowering to create an environment that is conducive to learning.
- High quality toys and resources that have been age appropriately selected for the children in our care.
Centre Philosophy
The centre's philosophy is based around the concept that children learn through play.
We believe that we should emphasise and recognize the family, the individual ability and skill of each child and the richness of the environment and natural surroundings.
We believe it is of utmost importance to nurture and educate the children in our care through the development of trust, security and loving relationships.
Our philosophy is founded on the knowledge that early childhood development focuses on the social, emotional, cognitive, physical and aesthetic development of the individual child.
