Wallaroo Playschool

Often in society children are prevented from discovering that they can think for themselves. At Wallaroo we work on the assumption that within the individual there is the ability to solve their own problems and conflicts. Non-authoritarian problem solving and reflective listening are an integral part of the learning process for everyone within this environment. Here adults do not set down mandates for children to obey, but rather strive to listen and use dialogue to find the root of the problem – and then work with the child to evolve ways to overcome it. Limits are needed, but they need to be mutually agreed upon, with no right or wrong judgements.
