The foundations of the Reggio philosophy are centred on the image of the child. Children are seen as capable and resourceful members of the community with one hundred ways of communicating their ideas and understandings of the world. Our series of art programmes offer children of all ages the opportunity to express and explore these ideas and understandings. The focus is on the process involved in creating the finished product that tells the story of the children s research and learning that has occurred. Through conversations, observations and collaboration of knowledge and information the children reach their destination. Depending on the schedules, classes may be facilitated by one or more of the resident artists that Blue House is proud to have under its roof, or a series of Blue House early childhood educators who specialise in this area.
