The


Community


Before any trip is undertaken, risk assessments are carried out and an appropriate ratio of staff is provided. Even if there is an unexpected closure at your child’s school, Centre Point is there to help. The staff work closely with the schools so that they have as much notice as possible to make emergency arrangements.


Centre Point recognizes that working in partnership with parents is of major


value and importance in order to provide the right environment for the children. The staff aim to form good relationships with parents so that information regarding their children, whether it is developmental, social or health related, can be exchanged easily and comfortably between staff and parents. Parents are kept up to date through notices posted on the notice board or by newsletters, questionnaires and social events.


To ensure that children settle in at the centre happily and with ease, induction days are arranged with the parents and the children in attendance.

What is Play? Centre Point Trust believes that:


Children need time, space and freedom to make sense of the world they live in.


• Play provides the freedom and scope to learn, practice, experiment and make mistakes


• There is a need to offer “risk” in children’s play, as well as the need to keep them safe from harm


• Interaction with the world through play exposes children to all kinds of necessary events and challenges


• “Risky” and free play is the apprenticeship of adulthood


• Taking risks encourages and promotes a child’s self-esteem and inner confidence


• Children build a wider understanding of their world and themselves without adults imposing their own values and rules


• Adults cannot provide the whole range of practical or personal experiences needed to promote free and “risky” play. As adults, we must recognise and respect that play is something children do very well on their own!
