Kia ora koutou. My name is Sandra Wingfield.
I have been involved in children’s education for the last 17 years, from playcentre, an education support worker, teacher aide, and I have finally found my passion, earned my Early Childhood teaching Degree and it is the best career ever!
Having the privilege to see a child’s excitement as they discover something for the first time or seeing them blossom as their confidence grows. A child’s curiosity is what makes them a lifelong learner, being able to be with them on their learning journey while they are with us is a special honour.
Does your child love to get messy, explore their outdoor environment, jump in a puddle, or read a book in the sun? Maybe they would love to explore the wonderful world of science. These are just a few of my favourite things that I love sharing with the children here at Impact Childcare.
Two quotes I believe are important to a child’s learning.
“If it hasn’t been in the Hand and the Body it can’t be in the Brain!” Bev Bos
“I am a Child, I am not built to sit still, keep my hands to myself, take turns, stand in line, be patient, or keep quiet. I need motion, I need novelty, I need adventure, and I need to engage the world with my whole body. Let me play, trust me, I am Learning” Author Unknown
I cannot wait to join you on your learning journey here at Impact.
