Child Guidance Policy

€ęWe are committed to providing a positive experience for the children entrusted to our care.
    For promoting  positive behaviour and responding properly to behaviour problems,
    our discipline policy is as follows

    - Make consequences of behaviours clear. 
    - Give children sufficient time to practice new rules. 
    - Reinforce appropriate behaviour by praising or rewarding the child. 
    - Encourage the sense of independence and collaboration by providing children with opportunity
       to do things for themselves and participate in group activities.
    - Set positive role models for children to follow.
 
€ęWe believe in positive discipline followed by logical consequences. Therefore, any type of
   corporal   punishment, verbal or physical degradation and emotional deprivation are not
   permitted in our program.
