Philosophy
Vantoinette Savage’s philosophy is based on discovery learning- the belief that learning, growing, and developing are natural, intuitive and inevitable processes. Children want to learn, be independent and competent. They are naturally curious, innovative and creative. Teachers thus should function as facilitators, protecting children’s natural curiosity and encouraging investigation and inquisitiveness, thereby enabling children to develop according to their own potential. This Center recognizes each child’s strengths and weaknesses at each stage of development and maturity. We also strive to guard the dignity of each individual so that children feel free to explore, question, experiment and play. Children are encouraged to work on resolving conflicts peacefully, to cooperate rather than compete, and to accept and honor the differences among us.
