We Believe:

* The programme should reflect an anti-bias approach where staff, children and families work together to foster self-esteem and positive attitudes towards diversity, heritage, culture, gender, family structures, abilities and socio-economic status.

* Observing children, setting realistic goals and evaluation is the basis for planning and effective programming.

* The programme will encourage participation and co-operation in a variety of small and large group experiences.

* The programme is designed to provide a balance of structured and unstructured, individual and group, active and quiet, child-initiated and teacher-directed experiences.

We Believe:

* The management will work together with the staff and parents, to provide a high quality service.

* Policies and procedures are important to the smooth running of the Centre, and are developed in response to the challenging needs of the Centre.

We Believe:

* The Centre draws on community resources to enrich our programme.

* Planet Child Care Centre offers a valuable service by providing care and a unique educational experience for the children in our community.
