We want Educare to provide a safe, balanced and nurturing education that enables children to develop their potential as individuals in their own right. We want Educare children to have the confidence, skills, love of learning and creativity to become influential citizens who make a positive contribution to tomorrows society.
We support your children in developing self confidence, self belief, independence, respectfulness, creativity, individuality, compassion, curiosity, determination and enthusiasm to underpin a life long love of learning,. Teachers, parents and children need to work together. Children need to develop intellectually, but also physically and emotionally.
School should fit the child, not the other way around. Why are we called Educare? The word is derived from Latin, meaning to draw forth and to nourish. In English, the word educare combines education and care , as we aim to do in our practice.
Educare is a non-profit-making educational community offering a balance of child-centred education and care in a safe environment that children and parents know and trust. Click below to listen to our founder Elizabeth Steinthal talk about her vision for the school.
