Philosophy - Arkie Early Education Centres

Arkie Early Education Philosophy

From day one, our goal has been to change the trajectory of children’s education through fun learning opportunities, interactions and experiences. As a true partner to parents, we inspire confidence, health, and ultimately happiness in every child.

Every child is unique, no two children are the same. The learning and development of every individual child remains at the heart of everything we do at Arkie.

At Arkie our role is to work in collaboration with families towards the holistic development of a child. We are dedicated to nurturing the social and emotional literacy of every child in preparation for kindergarten and life beyond school.

Family founded, we truly know the importance of family. We see Arkie as an extension of your family, committed to the highest level of safety, care and education for your child.

Arkie Early Education Centres | Philosophy

That every child has the right to rest and leisure, to engage in play and recreational activities appropriate to the age of the child and to participate freely in cultural life and the arts

Article 31, United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child

Anything that is worth teaching can be presented in many different ways. These multiple ways can make use of our multiple intelligences

Howard Gardner

The greatest gifts we can give our children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence

Maria Montessori

Education must be not only a transmission of culture but also a provider of alternative views of the world and a strengthener of the will to explore them

Jerome Bruner

Every child needs at least one adult who is irrationally crazy about him or her

Urie Bronfenbrenner

Where is the book in which the teacher can read about what teaching is? The children themselves are this book. We should not learn to teach out of any book other than the one lying open before us and consisting of the children themselves

Rudolf Steiner

Our vision for your child's Arkie experience

Our vision for each child, is for them;

To have positive, fun experiences to help shape their identity
To treat their community and environment with respect and fairness and understand the interdependence that exists between them
To be resilient, confident and optimistic social beings
To become active, involved, curious and effective lifelong learners
To engage and interact with different formats of communication and with others effectively

Our role as early childhood professionals is to create a strong bond with your child, create joy in every experience, interaction and learning opportunity, to always lead by example and place the interest of the child at the forefront of our every decision.
