The children are provided with a rich array of materials and activities from which to choose. By allowing children to plan, work, and evaluate and by providing experiences that stimulate the child's thinking processes, language, and social development, we create an environment that is conducive to self-initiated learning and discovery.

 

In addition, the Early Childhood Services developmental approach to children's
programs have stressed the following:

 

• Each child needs many opportunities for exploration in activities that are appropriate to his/her own level of skill and knowledge.
   

• The child learns best in stimulating settings where choices can be made and acted upon (ample space is available for action; many varieties of materials and equipment; routines are established).

 

• The child learns most effectively when he/she is healthy, rested, and alert.

 

• The child needs the active involvement and support of their parents/guardians in all aspects of development.

Our Philosophy

Our goal at First Flights Pre-school is to provide a quality program that strives to embrace the individual needs of the children, so that each may realize his or her growth and development potential. The daily program incorporates activities that encourage the physical, intellectual, creative, social, and emotional development of each child.
