The Division for Educational Innovations in collaboration with SIFMA St. Maarten will be organizing Parental Support Informational workshops in the months March to June 2014.
These workshops are geared to parents, guardians and early childhood educators of children between the ages of 0-4 years old attending daycare centers/pre-schools on St. Maarten. Various topics will be covered such as: The Daily Routine, The Importance of Play, Involving Families in the Active Learning Setting, The Transitions from Early Childhood to Foundation Based Education and; Budgeting (Insurance and Living on a Budget).
These courses are meant to further educate parents/guardians of young children between the ages 0-4 years with much needed and valued information. We do look forward to all parents/guardians participating and showing their support.
The courses will be held in the Community Centers within the district where the Day Care Centers and Pre-schools are located.
For the month of March the sessions will be held at the Belvedere Community Center for the parents/ guardians with children from 0 – 4 years old in the daycare centers/pre-schools in the Dutch Quarter Belvedere area. (see attached schedule for the month of March 2014).
For specific dates and location of these workshops do contact your child's daycare center/pre-school or contact our office at 543-7299 for more information.
