Parents' Notes on Discipline, Health and Safety
Parent #1
The teachers are terrific at supporting children in their social development and interactions. It is a primary focus and they are outstanding at it. I don't know how to talk about 'discipline' here. Children are fully supported as they meet social challenges such as taking turns, respecting others' bodies and feelings. For example, children are encouraged to wait for their turn by observing how another child is using a toy, thinking about what they want to do with it etc. The school itself is in a sweet bungalow is very comforting. I love coming by on the days kids help cook the snacks-like using a rice maker or baking rolls they shape themselves.
