At CIPS, we believe that all children should be provided with a strong Green Start foundation to grow into confident and independent adults who have an ingrained respect for themselves, others and the environment. Our learning environment places a child’s learning, health and well-being as first priority. CIPS encompasses highly experienced and well trained staff that is capable to deal with children from different backgrounds and ethics. At CIPS, we emphasize living a green healthy life by recycling and being kind to our earth. We extend our success from parent and teacher involvement in a supportive, confidence-building atmosphere, where early education and care will strive to create kids that are able to make positive changes to their community and the world.
Kids naturally explore and support eco-issues. Our curriculum harnesses this innate nature by emphasizing and educating the children to be more earth friendly. Since all aspects of life and learning can be made more eco-friendly, options for curriculum planning are endless. Some examples we implement at CIPS are recycling of old newspapers, re-using plastic bottles, reducing all hazards and respecting our environment. We would like to take this opportunity to invite you to visit our school’s recycling centre.
CIPS’s Green Start is a dream come true and with the help of our parents, their children and our dedicated teachers we will save our planet, introduce the right values to our kids for a better, more sustainable future. We value families for their bonds and traditions, their commitment to home and community, and their visions for their children’s education. In addition we value our staff for their vision, delight in children, skill, dedication, knowledge and commitment to our families.
Our Green Start preschool facility implements many techniques to ensure our premises reflect our dedication to protect our environment. We use non-toxic techniques both inside and outside the facility; lead and mercury free exterior rubber flooring, high quality and safe outdoor play equipment, wooden furniture and paper from farmed trees, lead free paints and wallpaper, and fire resistant wall partitions. Our interior flooring is made of 100% recycable materials that is sealed with fungi and bacteria sanitized treatment for hygienic purposes. Our materials also reflect this dedication with textbooks that are free of harmful chemicals, cleaning products and tissue paper that are biodegradable, and aromatic organic oil indoor air purifying and refreshing systems. At CIPS we are working towards the International Standardization Organization ISO certificate in education.
