WELCOME MEESHA

Salama alakum Meesha. Welcome to our family here at An-

Nur childcare centre. This week I have been observing you
as you settle into the centres routines, however you are a
wonderful free spirit and have been enjoying a few minutes
at each activity. With Jenny beside you, you have ventured
outside and had some great times in the sandpit, the slide
and even played in the playhouse. You surely are making
yourself at home which is what we like to see our new
children do. Every day its wonderful to see how relaxed you
have become, Im guessing you are feeling very safe.

Well being/Mana atua: All children have the right to have

their health and well-being promoted and to be protected
from harm. You also have the right Meesha to experience
affection, warmth and consistent care. Safe, stable and
responsive environments support the development of self-
worth, identity, confidence and enjoyment, together with
emotional regulation and self-control.

Learning outcomes: Children experience an environment

where over time and with guidance and encouragement they
become increasingly capable of managing themselves and
expressing their feelings and needs. These outcomes will be
observed as learning in progress when, for example, children
demonstrate a sense of personal worth and cultural identity
and the ability to make choice, focus attention, maintain
concentration and be involved.

Individual Learning Goal: Over the coming weeks you and

Jenny will be making yourself at home, learning the routines
we have in place around eating and toileting, and keeping
yourself safe. We will be encouraging you with positive
guidance and love. Insha Allah.
