At Bright Beginnings Nursery we aim for children to have.....................
          .................a love of learning
          ................a love of life
          ................a love of people

We focus on the ‘fun’ side of learning with an emphasis on bright, colourful surroundings, and toys and equipment that will encourage your child's participation. Learning through play, with children producing their own creations, is a major focus at the centre. At Bright Beginnings we aim to provide the highest quality professional care and an up to date early childhood educational program, in a caring friendly environment, and to meet the needs of children and families within the community. Bright Beginnings is designed to be a welcoming home where children spend their day and we are absolutely committed to providing quality care for children that is positive, educational and creative, and contributes to the child's total development. We aim to help all children realize their full potential and extend their talents regardless of gender, race, religion, or talent. Emphasis is on children learning to make choices and develop independence, and activities that develop creativity and self-expression.

Bright Beginnings is the ideal environment for children in these early years. There are no pressures on the children and they can build confidence and independence with the help of the wonderful teachers and the other children. The children will be exposed to pre-writing, pre-reading and early numeracy skills. Your child learns through play – sharing, building, constructing, co-operating, creating, reading, listening, imagining, telling, discovering, and making decisions. Activities foster balanced development in art, music, language, role-play and problem solving. Outdoor and indoor, quiet and noisy, individual, small and large group activities are all part of your child's day at Bright Beginnings. By the time they leave us to go to ‘big school’, they will have acquired the independence, confidence and knowledge they will require to enter more formal education

Our multi-lingual program (English, French and Arabic) offers the children the opportunity to learn or further extend their knowledge of languages whilst they are young and able to absorb new concepts so quickly and easily.

Development of social skills is a vital part of the nursery experience. And there is plenty of emphasis on building physical skills that allows children to explore their creative and problem-solving abilities.

Each class provides a large and exciting range of age appropriate equipment, which extends and nurtures your child’s development. Resources are updated regularly, and staff is kept abreast of developments in early childhood education, through in house training and appropriate courses and seminars.

We aim to enrich children's lives day-by-day so that they build up within themselves a sense of self-worth, a feeling of success and achievement.

We aim for children to develop their potential at their own rate as they acquire new skills.

We aim for children to question thoughtfully, to become independent, to be responsible for their actions, to develop respect for others' feelings and belongings, and to become responsible members of the community.

We encourage children to be children! To play, create and have fun – and to learn new skills without even knowing it! They will come home messy and tired, but happy!
