Valuing Families
Valuing Families, Culture and Community
As a not for profit community-based centre, Hastings Preschool and Long Day Care is governed by a management committee consisting of parents who take an active part in discussion and decision making to achieve outcomes that best meet the interest of the service.
We strive to give children a strong sense of identity where their family and culture is highly valued, and families have significant input into the centre and the learning opportunities we provide. We go beyond family involvement to create respectful and collaborative relationships and together, form a shared vision for their child’s potential and the pathway that will best ensure potential is reached. Families are heard and their goals for their children are respected and included.
