About Gold Star

Gold Star Daycare and After School Care provide a full-range of child care services for all ages, from infancy to twelve years of age. As the primary purpose of early childhood programs, we support children’s learning and development and provide care for children in working families understanding the demands of working parents. Our main goal is to develop the whole child socially, emotionally, physically, intellectually and creatively. We also focus on providing children with skills that will prepare them for success in later schooling. We believe that healthy, happy children grow into healthy, happy and productive adults.

Our Curriculum

We encourage and support children’s natural curiosity and learning. We provide children a safe, healthy, and nurturing environment that has a variety of activities for head, heart and hands, such as Indoor activities to develop fine and gross motor skills and Outdoor activities including field trips and nature walks to achieve milestones in each stage of development. We ensure that our priority goes to child selected and child directed activities that are explored independently in an environment designed for purposeful play and learning.

Our Philosophy

CHILD FIRST AND FOREMOST

We believe that quality childcare facilities the healthy growth and development of the ‘whole’ child. We believe that all children are different and unique; our environment accepts and encourages children to express their full potential in all aspects of their development.

Through children’s natural curiosity to explore their environment, we create a setting that first engages and then stimulates physical, social, emotional and cognitive development with a goal to maximizing their potential.

First children need to believe in themselves, have healthy self-esteem and confidence as the platform for all dimensions of the whole child to be successful. The cornerstones – mathematical/music, nature/GEO awareness, whole child (self-worth), early literacy and numeracy, community/global awareness and nutrition – are all being implemented with a child centered approach.

We believe that for the child to feel accepted and loved that our program must blend and enhance that child’s family experiences with their experience in the centre, thus family participation is encouraged to enhance the quality of the experience for the child. Therefore we embrace multiculturalism and encourage acceptance that we are all different but the same.
