It is our belief that children understand themselves
and their world through pleasurable learning
activities carefully planned for the child’s
developmental level. As children grow and become
competent in the skills taught, they become
self-directed and have a positive view of themselves.
An enthusiasm for learning is a natural by-product
of this new self-confidence. Our goal is to provide a
loving and stimulating environment which
encourages a child to grow intellectually, to interact
appropriately with peers and adults, and to exhibit
respect for himself and others.
It is the Philosophy of Golden Poppy Preschool that
children who feel safe, comfortable, and respected
will exhibit a natural curiosity and enthusiasm for
learning. We believe that as a child develops new
interests, reaches new levels of comprehension, and
begins to acquire new skills, it is our job as
educators to provide materials to facilitate the child’s
natural development.
