At Discovery Playhouse we provide many educational services including Daycare, Preschool, and Out of School Care. Any time you enter our Centre doors you will find children busy learning and developing in a safe and fun filled environment. It is our hope that the families of Discovery Playhouse will be actively involved with their children at the Centre as we are a Society run by our members. We invite and encourage input and feedback from all of our families. Please use the contacts link for more information about becoming part of the Discovery family. Philosophy, At Discovery Playhouse we believe:, in inclusive programs,in developing a better understanding and acceptance of differences.children are unique individuals with their own special capabilities.that children progress at their own rate and have individual strengths and learning styles.that children can grow to their optimum potential and develop a positive self-esteem in a safe, nurturing, secure, and stimulating environment.in supporting families in their care-giving roles by building on their unique strengths as families and on the strengths of the individual family members.in the process of creative art rather than the product, thus promoting the individual child's own creativity.in an environment that fosters an accepting, tolerant, and flexible attitude towards others and respect for the natural world.that partnerships with parents and professionals are enhanced by clear and on-going communication.in providing opportunities for independent success and fun.that developmentally appropriate activities are best provided through child initiated, child directed, and Teachers facilitated play. Discovery Playhouse Children's Society is a registered charity offering both preschool, daycare and out-of-school programs. We have been operating in Pitt Meadows since 1974. We are founded and maintained by parents whose objectives are to provide a quality educational experience for their children. We welcome all children and their families to our Centre. Our program recognizes that children are individuals and that every child is unique. This will mean that the activities of play, learning, and growing will be presented in such a way that all children will feel they belong. more... See more text
