Children learn not from what others tell them, but from
actual experiences intimately related to the particular
stage of development.
Children are not blotters absorbing knowledge, but should
be active participants in the acquisition of information and
have a special environment in which each child has the
opportunity to discover and learn. This environment must
invite the children to active participation.
Our staff must know that young children learn through their
senses, from work and play experiences, which begin by
touching, smelling, tasting, seeing and hearing.
It is time that we reach out into the community and cultivate
the potential among our people because it is there.
It is impossible for our children to go forth without somehow
helping the mothers and fathers of our children. We need
them to attempt to create an atmosphere of help and self-help,
wherein an individual can learn from self while at the same time
assist other in learning.
The most basic, yet most important things can be learned by our children.
