NC RESA Building Bridges "Neway Nature Preschool"

NC RESA Building Bridges "Neway Nature Preschool" Providing outdoor learning for children of Newaygo! Get UP, Get OUT, EXPLORE! EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY:
Childhood should be joyful and wholesome.

MISSION STATEMENT:
The mission of the Neway Nature Preschool is to provide hands-on opportunities for learning and skill development for all learners through nature-based inquiry, as well as outdoor exploration to develop a lasting appreciation for the world. We believe that the earliest, most memorable kind of learning comes from the experiences they encounter. When thoughtful nature-based curric

ulum is combined with direct experiences in nature, a trans-formative change takes place. This connection is both powerful and empowering. We believe that children are natural learners, eager to explore and create. The teaching staff promotes early learning by:

• Providing a natural environment that enables and encourages discovery, experimentation, and the opportunity to see the results of one’s actions.

• Structuring a program that includes many opportunities for children to be outdoors, learning and exploring, reflecting the research that supports the advantages of these experiences.

• Offering opportunities for children to connect with nature while developing the skills of the whole child, as well as children’s individual abilities and interests.

• Encouraging problem solving and reflection by asking open-ended questions and providing information in response to children’s ideas, observations, and questions.

• Assisting children in their interactions with each other and supporting opportunities for learning to work in a group.

• Appreciating and celebrating the unique individuality of children and families.
