We believe in working together

Successful cooperation between parents, carers, the community and other organisations and our staff is important because it has a positive effect on our centre, your child's development if they attend our centre and the wider community.

 

This is why we encourage a culture of cooperation, continuous exchange between these groups and staff and joint planning of parties, events and excursions.

 

We are also currently part of 3 ERASMUS International projects. (countries include- Turkey, Austria, Lithuania, Germany, Scotland, Iceland, )
