Kids World School Age Care
Kids World is an interactive program that engages children in a supportive atmosphere.
At the beginning and end of each school day children from neighbouring schools come together at Frog Hollow Neighbourhood House and are given the opportunity to play, interact with friends, have fun, and receive encouragement based on the Reggio Emilia approach. Our educators are deeply committed and dedicated to providing a high quality school aged program. They believe in equal learning opportunities and see themselves as the children’s research partners.
Project ideas and invitations based on observations and discussions are offered to children while further observation and documentations continue. This interactive and reflective process provides children with open-ended projects that will allow them to experience learning that is unique and individualized.
Children at our program are offered:
- a nutritious snack in the afternoon
- variety of natural and open-ended materials to explore
- equal opportunities to speak their thoughts & test their ideas
- project-based learning opportunities based on their own interests and theories
- community opportunities for encouraging exploration and compassion
- local field-trips
- outdoor play and exploration opportunities at the local park, our playgrounds, and the school across the street
Our Kids World Children’s program is an inclusive, bias-free environment in which children’s thoughts are respected equally and incorporated highly in the foundations of the program.
