2. OUR PHILOSOPHY
At the Lillypilly Children’s Centre, we provide a safe and
caring environment for children from birth to preschool.
We are committed to providing ‘best practice’ in relation to our
cultural and educational experiences. Our belief is that our
programs operate within a fun and relaxed setting.
The service promotes inclusive practices for children, families,
staff and the community.
We are committed to giving everyone a voice, with rights and
respects for all.
Living in the area of Northern Rivers, we believe in
encouraging the children to experience nature through their
play. Hence, our programs encourage a sense of belonging,
being and becoming in a natural environment.
