KADIMAH PRESCHOOL PHILOSOPHY, VISION & VALUES
אם לא עכשו אימתי – If not now – when
We believe that it is a privilege to be involved in the learning and development of young children, who should be perceived as capable, confident and unique individuals.
Therefore we endeavor to create a warm and secure environment where the children’s development and learning are encouraged in an atmosphere which is supported by Jewish values and the New Zealand Early Childhood Curriculum – Te Whāriki.
We will promote a sense of belonging and equity by valuing and celebrating the spiritual dimensions of Judaism as well as the diverse cultural backgrounds of all children. We also acknowledge the importance of recognizing Māori as theTāngata Whenua.
