Alexander

Hello, I am Alexander and as an early years educator, I believe it is my role to educate and guide children to lifelong learning. I believe each child is an individual with the right to learn, and learning through play-based experiences is a key foundation for young children as it supports and guides them into the person they will grow to become.

Hi I am Miss Alyshia and I believe that children will thrive when they feel comfortable and supported, and this starts with making strong and positive connections with the whole family. The relationships we build will help us all support each child and their families, to learn as they grow into aspiring young people with brilliant minds. Children can achieve anything they put their minds to, and will go further when given the love and support from everyone who surrounds them.
