Windsor Community Children’s Centre (WCCC), is a community-based Cooperative childcare centre and kindergarten that is run by a Board and a Committee of Management made up of parents and educators. WCCC provides long day care and kindergarten for children aged six months to five years, on a part-time or full-time basis. We find inspiration and guidance in several pedagogic approaches and philosophies including Reggio Emilia, Steiner and Montessori. We foster children’s interests and stages of development, with emotional and social development being a fundamental part of the program.
