AddressStella Maris OSHC runs a flexible and adaptable child-initiated program incorporating children’s ideas, cultures, and interests. We view each child as having preparedness, potential, curiosity, and interest in constructing their own learning and in negotiating everything the environment presents to them. We provide guidance and support to children so they can discover, explore, and create something new every day.
