Our passion is to provide every child with the best possible start in life. At Think Childcare Ltd, our values are based on the core belief that happy educators result in happy children, and happy children means happy families and communities. Our Nido Early Schools (nidoearlyschool.com.au) use the Reggio Emilia philosophy combined with the Early Years Learning Framework and the National Quality Standard to provide the very best standard of education and child care. Art and encouraging self-expression is paramount and each Nido Early School has a dedicated art studio (Atelier) where each child is encouraged to express their creativity using a variety of mediums and materials. At Nido Early Schools our values and ethos are: • We believe every child is capable and competent • We believe each child has the right to make choices in regard to their learning • We believe every child should feel a strong sense of well-being • We believe that the environment should reflect our love of nature and sustainability • We believe that the environment is the 'third teacher' and we set up our physical spaces in a manner that encourages engagement and exploration • We believe in building relationships with families and communities • We believe the early years are the foundation years and by providing meaningful learning experiences we can cultivate a love of learning • We believe that learning is ongoing, and we constantly seek to develop our own knowledge Board of Directors: Non-Executive Chairman: Mark Kerr Managing Director & CEO: Mathew Edwards Non-Executive Director: Joe Dicks Non-Executive Director: Evonne Collier Non-Executive Director: James Spenceley ASX Code: TNK
