Achieving ‘Quality’ in our Activities
All centres operated by Vista Coop are geared towards the holistic development of our children in a fun environment. Using the concept of emerging curriculum, we aim to achieve high quality learning outcomes.
Content based on the learning outcomes
Our qualified childcarers interact with the children through the range of activities designed to cater for their physical, social, intellectual and emotional needs. The approach chosen for our childcare provision is in line with the Reggio Emilia experience and thus there is no timetable of activities which is fixed in stone but these activities are more or less designed according to the needs of the child/ren together with the events that may have been happening in the centre, according to the season or the weather, for example. Importance is given to the actual twinning of these activities to the range of learning outcomes as set in an age-appropriate manner.
Language of instruction
Both Maltese and English are used as languages of instruction. We acknowledge the situation where there are children who at home either speak Maltese only or English only. In Malta both these languages are official therefore it is important that children are exposed to both languages and learn to use them correctly in early years.
