Our Mission!
Our Philosophy!

​

Here at Hosca;

Children are valued for their individuality and for their wonder and curiosities. We believe in children’s right to PLAY.

  • We believe that children must have some control over the direction of their learning and be given endless ways and opportunities to express themselves

  • All children have the right to learn through play which should be fun, exciting, challenging, hands-on, stimulating, relaxing, interactive, comforting and spontaneous

  • We feel that it is important to provide guidance and opportunities for children to discover, explore, create, investigate, practice theories, experiment, solve problems, express ideas and be calculated risk takers with the support of other children and the educators

  • We believe in celebrating children’s play, discoveries and learning and will do so through reflection, meaningful documentation, and learning stories

    ...

 

 

Hosca’s philosophy recognises the benefits of providing a holistic learning experience for our children in a caring, enriching environment supported by skilled, knowledgeable and passionate Educators who value families and the community.

Our Program

It is the children’s program and they choose how they spend their time here. We involve the children in creating our program to cater to their needs and wants, we hold meetings and take minutes which then evolve into our programs. We
as Educators assess these experiences with the children and ask that you as families become involved also, we keep a journal of our daily activities by the sign in/out register and ask that you contribute to writing comments and suggestions in it. Your children’s time at Hosca is documented as observations and is yours to take as a keepsake when you
leave Hosca.

Our Program

Started November 2019

Towards the end of last year we started a program wall as you enter our Darlington centre. During the month of November and December we had our program focused on Dominoes as we were all showing a really big interest on these. The dominoes were a hit and we all learnt lots of different ways of building, we understood the need for persistence and patience while setting up the dominoes.

 

During the summer holiday's and first term of 2020, we did lots of clay projects, including pinching pots, bird houses, bowls and monsters. These are now getting glazed  and hopefully be ready to go home soon.

This term we are focusing on our Quality Area 1, upon entering Hosca you will notice we have placed information on Quality Area 1 from our Quality Improvement plan, We would love some feed from our families about this area which focuses on our programming and how we deliver it.
