The Family Centre Day Care has been established to provide positive early childhood experiences where children can grow physically, emotionally and socially in a family centered and family sensitive setting. Active parental participation is encouraged by teachers who view child care as a positive extension of the home environment.
Adventure Hours Nursery School was established in 1972. Our Philosophy has always remained the same: to provide a positive first step in the ongoing development of the whole child. To offer services to every child regardless of need, whether it be physical, emotional, or otherwise. Adventure Hours Nursery School is largely based on the High/Scope curriculum. High/Scope bases its educational approach on key experiences in a learning environment, which allows the child to learn through play. The teachers job is to provide the child with the opportunities to experience creativity, challenges, and successes, along with restrictions, and frustrations, and to guide the child in dealing with these situations in a socially acceptable manner. In order to do this, the teacher must build a genuine relationship with each child, to build trust, which leads to the development of language, including the child's expressing his thoughts and feelings.
At Chatham-Kent Children's Services, our mission is to Strengthen Children and Families for a Better Future. We are an accredited, multi-service agency that responds to the unique dynamics of our families. We support the well being and safety of our children and their families through evidence-based practices and collaboration with community partners. Together, CKCS employees strive to foster an environment that encourages positive growth, professional development and progressive change.
