Little Buckingham's Mission and Values
Mission Statement
At Little Buckingham, we empower young learners to grow, explore, and thrive in a supportive and playful environment. Through curiosity-driven discovery and creative expression, our students develop a strong foundation for lifelong learning, social-emotional intelligence, and a love for the world around them. We celebrate diversity and support each child’s unique path toward confidence, learning, and kindness.
Values and Beliefs
At Little Buckingham Nursery School, we believe that the early years are a vital foundation for lifelong learning, development, and well-being. Our values shape every interaction, experience, and relationship within our school community.
• Every Child is Unique
We believe each child is a capable, curious, and competent individual. We celebrate their differences and support their unique paths of growth and development.
• Learning Through Play
We value play as the heart of early childhood learning. Through meaningful, hands-on experiences, children explore, discover, and make sense of their world.
• Warm, Respectful Relationships
We believe that strong, nurturing relationships form the foundation for learning. Our staff build trusting connections with children and families to create a secure and inclusive environment.
• The Power of Environment
We believe that a safe, stimulating, and beautifully prepared environment encourages exploration, independence, and creativity.
• Partnership with Families
We see families as the first and most important teachers. We work closely with parents and caregivers to build strong partnerships that support each child's journey.
• Diversity and Inclusion
We respect and celebrate the rich backgrounds, cultures, and identities within our community. We create an environment where every child feels seen, heard, and valued.
• Holistic Development
We are committed to nurturing every aspect of a child’s development – cognitive, emotional, physical, social, and spiritual – in a balanced and thoughtful way.
• Lifelong Love for Learning
We aim to instill confidence, independence, and a joyful love of learning that will carry children into their school years and beyond.
