Strong Roots Facilitate The Learning Process
Engaging in play-based exploration with supportive facilitators allows us to uncover understandings of the world around us. Play provides us with a platform for tapping into creativity and divergent thinking. It is a building block for healthy brain development and future skill growth that fosters thriving lifescapes.
“The role of a creative leader is not to have all the ideas; it’s to create a culture where everyone can have ideas and feel that they’re valued.”
– Sir Ken Robinson
The Early Learning community honors the unique needs of each learner through compassionate support. We understand that curiosity comes before content. We foster natural inquisitions while simultaneously facilitating opportunities for new experiences. We provide a platform for learners to observe, to ask questions, to theorize, and to experiment. This active pursuit for understanding creates a base for future, more advanced learning. Pursuing inquisition and developing confidence in independent and collaborative navigation creates a base for thinking critically and building understanding.
