At Clovelly Out of School Care we respect the value and benefit of play in
childhood and believe it contributes significantly to a child’s development as it
scaffolds a foundation for continuous constructive learning throughout life. We
foster opportunities for children’s evolution by providing a nurturing and
stimulating environment which promotes exploration, independence, creativity
and confidence. We acknowledge that middle childhood is a precious time
where children form friendships, learn vital social skills and experience
innocent wonder, joy and laughter in their time out of school. At COOSC we
aim to embrace each child’s uniqueness by encouraging open communication,
inclusive practices, and diversity through our programs, understanding and
attitude. Educators strive to be appropriate role models, promoting self-esteem,
rights and responsibilities, fairness and honesty and aim to build respectful
relationships with families and the community.
