Children
Within the Reggio philosophy we are constantly reminded that Children are seen as architects of their own learning, as adults we simply support and add all the play ingredients. Giving children the ability to bring their imagination, ideas and focus to the table. That is why a day at The Yellow Door can take you anywhere- one minute we are feeding the dinosaurs strawberries and the next we are building a rocket out of cardboard boxes.
This is what true early years learning should look like…it shouldn’t be restricted, children should be in the ‘driving seat’ exploring and empowering.
This is what our curriculum is based around- A child initiated play based program which stimulates children’s learning, exploration and social connections.
Our staff give our children every opportunity to make choices and to risk assess their own choices and how their choices effect others.
We believe it is this philosophy that will give children the ability to grow into confident children/teenagers/adults.
Let them explore and make their own choices…
Let them take risks…
Let them use their imagination…
Let them be who they want to be…
