At Pumpkin Patch we hold children in high esteem, and we believe strongly that every child not only has a right to participate but also has a contribution to make. Our main focus is on building relationships. We attempt to create an atmosphere of trust, love and caring where children are emotionally connected and part of the bigger community.
We are inclusive of children with all different needs and different learning styles. As children build confidence in themselves they are willing to engage in new activities and become active learners. Through sharing God's love and promoting Christian values the children become very accepting of others and often don't see differences, looking beyond abilities, races and language barriers.
