Ladybird Kindergarten
“A special kind of place where we play and learn together”
At Ladybird Kindergarten we strive to create a happy atmosphere where learning is fun, where children, parents and staff learn together and where all develop to their maximum potential. We believe children learn most effectively by using all their senses and through their own activity and first hand experiences. The learning environment is carefully planned so that children grow in independence and take increasing responsibility for themselves.
Each child is an individual and has needs that should be met in an atmosphere that celebrates diversity. Children need acceptance and approval in order to develop a positive concept of self and grow in confidence and self-esteem.
