Find A Grave Memorial# 25639940
I was born in Los Angeles, California on New Year's Day. It was the happiest day of my grandmother's life to have seen me for the first time!! Of course for my mom as well..
I cannot give you in detail how my proud father felt too!! I was the first little girl!! I was very precious to all three of them.
I came across "Find a Grave" surfing the web.. I was sad thinking & remembering my father "my papi" and since I love reading bio's of persons...
I was thinking it would be a wonderful idean to have a rememberance of our papi,
so I created a "Virtual Cemetery"
for our father and our abuelita...and many others...
Life has its course:"IT GIVES YOU AND TAKES AWAY FROM YOU" IT TOOK MY GRANDMOTHER...
After They Are Gone
When someone we love passes away,
We ache, but we go on;
Our dear departed would want us to heal,
After they are gone.
Grief is a normal way to mend
the anguish and pain in our hearts;
We need time to remember and time to mourn,Before the recovery starts.
Let's draw together to recuperate,
As we go through this period of sorrow;
Let's help each other,
with tender careTo find
a brighter tomorrow.
WE HAVE TO TRY OUR BEST TO REACH THE GATES OF HEAVEN... God Bless.. Prissyღ♥ღ♦•♦ღ♥ღღ♥ღ♦♦ღ♥ღღ♥ღღ♥ღღ♥ღღ

Memorial Day 2012
"From the president of the United States and grateful Nation."
I remember the words so clearly as they handed my Mother the flag. I had never heard those words before that. As I stood there on that cold November Day, thoughts came swirling in my head. I flashed back to my fathers entire demeanor. How he organized his clothing drawers were. How he lived with honor, how military he was. How he had wanted to be in the National Cemetery and I was so against it.
It was like it was all coming together in my head, I was seeing experiences known only to those understanding military tradition.
He was part of this white sea of headstones belonging to the men and women who valiantly defended our nation. His military back bone had always been there.
He served as a Chaplin ministering to Vets at the Minneapolis Veterans Hospital for years. He was on the honor guard for awhile. He gave blood routinely as he was AB negative, the rarest blood type in the world. Many nights he would get a 2 am call and out the door he would go to give blood because someone was in need. It took me years to understand what a military man is. He lived our nation and preserving it's goodness my entire life.
Memorial Day means so many different things to our society. The start of summer, picnics, it is the official end of winter where I live.
To veterans it is a time of reflection, of their courage, sacrifices, pride and loss. My son has lost 2 friends to the Iraq war, and another that came back severely injured and is struggling with his injuries and each day is a gift as those days are slipping away from him.
Memorial Day we bring into memory those that have fought for our freedom. I would like to thank you, for your Father, Son, daughter, husband, ancestor, or maybe even you, for the scarifies your families have endured to keep America out of harms way.
That as we begin Memorial Day 2012 our families remain strong and we are enduring together what our nation is all about....
"First in WAR ... First in PEACE ... and First in the HEARTS of his countrymen."
George Washington.

Merry Christmas!
I have been working Christmas day for as long as I can remember. It has always been by choice. Although the double pay and a half is an incentive. It is the one day a year I know I can make a difference.
There are always the "ones" who are sitting by the elevator door waiting for their family to come. The "ones" who have no family but still hope for a visitor. The "ones" who's family can't come due to distance but they still hope. And the "ones" who have family but have long been forgotten.
There was a time when you could walk into a hospital or nursing home and visit with people. Now you have to go through "channels" you have to have clearance. In some cases if you want to volunteer to visit, you have to have a back ground check.
What has happened to us? We need each other so badly yet as a society we have been forced to part. As I walk through the stores and malls I can see people on the verge of tears. It is there ,right there under the surface, as time goes on it is getting harder for people to hide their pain.
The pain of what we are becoming in this treasured nation is worn on our peoples faces. Many have lost homes, jobs, and most of all hope. Hopes definition is, the emotional state which promotes the belief in a positive outcome related to events and circumstances in one's life. How simple a definition can be said yet it's meaning is so vital to us all.
We are in the season of "hope'" it is more than time for hope to return to us. It is time to bring it back . We can have hope for a brighter future, to be more kind to each other, to help one another through this, and to ease each others pain if it is only with a glance and a smile of I understand, I am standing here with you.
We are a strong stubborn nation, built on a foundation of caring and taking care of each other. We can't let hope leave us.
On a Christmas morning long ago a baby was born into this world to bring us everlasting life. That was the beginning of hope. That was our salvation and our link to peace. The grouping of the words Faith, Hope, Love, Joy, Peace, are seen everywhere at this time of year.
I am sending you my wish that those words will not be words but an ointment to wash away your pain, your uncertainty of tomorrow and to send you my hope, that Faith, Hope, Love, Joy, and Peace, are part of your life each and everyday of the New Year.
Cyber Christmas Hugs,

Have a Happy Thanksgiving Holiday! I am thankful to call you my friend

Thanksgiving Day Blessings...
Thanksgiving as a kid we had Halloween, then Thanksgiving, and then Christmas it was like leading up to the Super Bowl. In Minnesota it was almost worth the Halloween snow storm that does not stop until May. You got three wonderful holidays and it ended with presents. How much better could it get?
I remember one year my Mom had slaved over 4 pumpkin pies. She wanted them to cool quickly so she put them out on a ledge that actually was a cooling ledge right out side the kitchen window. It took about a minute and a half for the squirrels to find it. They had a party. There was about 7 of them swimming in her pies. I remember her standing at the window just looking out. All of us came running to see what she was looking at.
Squirrels were throwing pumpkin pie at each other one was running back and forth to feed another squirrel who was too frightened to approach the window. You could hear the holiday bliss and squirrels almost singing through the window. Their little furry faces were orange and they were chewing as fast as they could. Two of them thought it would be a good idea to take one home and were trying to drag a pie off.
I remember it was just mayhem out that window. Here she was, with 5 little children standing with her watching us, watch her face. None of us giggled or moved or even were breathing for a few minutes as we all stood there.
What would she do? She had been making pies for 2 days. I kept thinking she is going to explode any second. She left the window, went over to the freezer and pulled out 2 store bought frozen pies. Put them on the counter and looked at us kids.
In a low deep voice she said, "who did you think I was baking those pies for? The squirrels have to have Thanksgiving too".
It was so funny, I remember her reaction was almost as funny as what was going on outside that window. We laughed and watched. She was just going to be alright with this even if it killed her.
For days there were squirrels with stained orange faces jumping around the yard and all she would say is....Well, I know which ones did it, and I will be watching for them come Christmas.
Now I look back on those precious days so differently. It is about being together and seeing your family. Some that only are able to come for holidays due to distance. It is about seeing that one or two family members that always leave you shaking your head. It is about the new life, the babies and kids that are living the Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas Super Bowl.
We all have our memories of those who have gone before, don't let those memories make you sad, keep them close to your heart because those memories are what keep them near to us, they live on, when we can smile and see the squirrels faces covered in pumpkin on a cold winters day.
May the Joy and Hope of Thanksgiving bring you into the Christmas season refreshed and ready to party on.

Angel day thank you, Matthew Clark
Grief is itself a medicine. - William Cowper
If I would have read this 12 years ago, I would have spit on the ground and screamed, are you crazy? In 12 years I have had a lot of medicine.
A medicine is a remedy, a remedy is therapy, that relieves pain, cures disease, or corrects a disorder.
So if you believe William, I have been suffering with a disorder and my medicine or remedy is grief. Seriously, grief spans out in front of our lives like a highway in the desert. It goes off into the sunset only to return with the dawn.
Just as you are about to except grief, the medicine of grief returns to be another almost road block in life. I have no idea where I am going with this. I know there is something to communicate here but I just can't find the words.
Maybe it's the Mary Poppins version of "just a spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down." You have been my spoon full of sugar on my fathers Angel Day.
You made it better and bearable and once again I was not alone on these tragic memorable days but you were all here with me. Thank you for the sugar and the willingness to be a part of today.

RE: Helloooo
Hello, and thanks for letting me know about the new photo for Bryan Adona. I was able to get his middle name and birthdate from it, and have updated the memorial, although I don't know who placed the photo there. However, I'm sure you'll agree that it was very kind of them.

Merry Christmas
I racked my brain to come up with something to send out that would say just how I really felt about my friends here on Find A Grave. I looked at poems. I looked at cute jokes. I looked at quotes. After looking and looking I finally found exactly what it was I wanted to say. It's from "It's A Wonderful Life" and is the inscription found in Clarence Oddbody's copy of "Tom Sawyer" at the end of the movie.
It says:
"Dear George, remember no man is a failure who has friends. Thanks for the wings, Love Clarence."
We are so lucky here on Find A Grave to have such wonderful and supporting friends. Thank you for being my Find A Grave friend and for remembering my loved ones throughout this past year.
Merry Christmas!
Cheers - Kathie

The solar-powered school on stilts
Image of 14 - Use your left and right arrow keys to navigate the gallery
Article Summary
It's almost as good as going to school in a treehouse. The recently opened Elleray Preparatory School in the Lake District National Park has three class pods standing on stilts connected by a center platform made from recycled materials, such as plastic milk bottles and wood shavings. Nestled amongst the trees, the complex is built to have a low environmental impact and therefore makes excellent use of solar power, rainwater collection, and has an energy-efficient heat pump.

"Oxford is a new tissue paper brand that we developed from scratch.
The idea was to create a completely new look for such a mundane product. We started with a name to give it some character, a matching logo and a stricking uniform.
Though constrained with the packaging format we found an original way to brand not only the existing product, but the new ones as well."
Little Bird
June 12, 2012 | 2 Comments
Designed by Pearlfisher | Country: United Kingdom
"Pearlfisher has created the tone of voice and brand identity for Little Bird, the fresh new brand for babies and children up to 5 years old from Jools Oliver in partnership with Mothercare.
Mothercare's values of timeless and enduring care and quality, combined with Jools Oliver's loving, modern and unique approach to motherhood have combined to create the perfect partnership. Little Bird is the unique and fresh expression of this collaboration.
The brand is strongly rooted in heritage and nostalgia mixed with a modern quirky twist. Jools was a Mothercare baby herself and the shared history and her love of vintage inspiration is a cornerstone to the brand.
The brand identity is an iconic symbol for motherhood and the design brings to life the brand name through a little bird icon. The brand mark works as a double visual identity, with the heart icon becoming apparent after that of the bird – celebrating the best of childhood and growing up, by representing freedom, curiosity and connection, core values of the brand. The rainbow is a nod to vintage, looking back to the 70's whilst the neon in the name is a link to the modern quirky feel of the brand. And all of these design cues in combination sum up the essence of the brand.
The identity will be brought to life across the Little Bird brand range of clothes, packaging and brand collateral."

"Brand and Package Design for "The Divinging Rod". The first new brand for Charles Krug/C. Mondavi & Family Wines in over 50 years.
The winemaker and family member Marc Mondavi is a skilled "water witch/dowser" (the ability to locate water far beneath the ground using divining rods) and has aided in vineyard development for the company. Divining is first recorded in history around the 15th century — thus the imagery I developed for the brand."

Designed by Lavernia & Cienfuegos | Country: Spain
"Packaging and graphic design of sun-care range, sold in Mercadona supermarkets. The project had a very demanding brief to optimize processes and costs, without sacrificing that the product communicates quality, is attractive and has a strong presence on the shelf. For the 36 references we designed two bottles. These two packs support different lids and different dosing mechanisms: pumps, sprays, disc-top… and also the design gives an effective response to the two objectives of the project: on one hand, solve problems of logistics and production; on the other, with only two packages, obtain a highly differentiated range of products, with its own personality. The colors of the containers provide the necessary differentiation between the sub-ranges of products: sunscreen, tanning, aftersun… The graphics serve as a rapid and clear identification of each one of them. This is achieved by the prominent and powerful presence of a numeral that indicates the protection factor, a key element in the purchase decision, and that at the same time strengthens the personality of the range."

The Coors Banquet brand is built upon the legends of its timeless western spirit, from miner banquets to it's high quality ingredients. We celebrate the Banquet Beer's rich heritage with the release of four commemorative can designs selected from the brewery archive. The cans represent the 1930s to 1980s, and are a testament that Coors Banquet is Golden Forever."

Cuberdons Léopold is a yound and modern brand of cuberdons that wants to modernize the product but also keep the vintage image by using graphical elements such as purple stripes that remains the beach huts of the Belgian seaside. The drawing face is reproduction of the face of King Léopold 1st, first king of Belgium, who has marked the independance of the Kingdom of Belgium in 1831, a period when cuberdon has been invented.

"Deer You is a new honest brand based on an organic cultive that keep the natural properties of our fruit and save it from pollution and synthetic ingredients.
Deer You, a real and reliable fruit juice.
The brand as an stamp, tries to give quality to the product, but with a nowadays style, cause we don't want it to be an old fashion juice. Also the mountains on the background gives to Deer You Organic Juice a different and atractive feeling. The bootle tries to represent a canteen bottle, which people used to carry to adventure trips, or to a cabin in the middle of nowhere, so it help us to transport our minds to a fresher air place."

"Part of a project to create a hamper set for vip parties themed on popular past times of Suffolk.
Whole Hamper kit to come soon!
The idea behind this pair was to create a universal label design, reminiscent of the engravings found on old British shotguns, and differentiate different drinks by the bottle and hang tag. Here are the first two examples."
June 7, 2012 | 3 Comments
Designed by Cipmann | Country: Croatia
"Cipmann was asked to create visual identity and packaging for the homemade honey and honey-based products that would emphasize their local origin and high quality. We came up with the brand name Mediterra ('med' is Croatian word for honey, and 'terra' is Latin for land, earth) and the identity that evokes natural balance and puts the bee in the primary focus.
The package design is inspired by traditional jars of homemade food which were extremely simple and had just a name sticker on them. The label on the jar is as simple as it can get. If we would to remove just one more element, it wouldn't function any more. The color of the honey is actually the primary differentiator between the products, as it was in the old days. We think that the unobtrusive label lets the rich color of the honey speak for itself. And it speaks volumes.
The jar also contains a coaster doubling as a business card, situated under the jar's 'cap' so the jar doesn't stick to the surface."

Cuba Democracy Assistance:
USAID's Program Is Improved, but State Could Better Monitor Its Implementing Partners
GAO-13-285: Published: Jan 25, 2013. Publicly Released: Feb 7, 2013.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-3149
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
What GAO Found
The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and Department of State (State) provide democracy assistance for Cuba aimed at developing civil society and promoting freedom of information. Typical program beneficiaries include Cuban community leaders, independent journalists, women, youths, and marginalized groups. USAID receives the majority of funding allocated for this assistance, although State has received 32 percent of funding since 2004. In recent years, both USAID and State have provided more funding for program implementation to for-profit and nongovernmental organizations (NGO) with a worldwide or regional focus than to universities and to NGOs that focus only on Cuba. All types of implementing partners, but worldwide or regional organizations in particular, used subpartners to implement program activities under 21 of the 29 awards and contracts that GAO reviewed.
USAID and State legal officials view the Cuba democracy programs authorizing legislation as allowing the agencies discretion in determining the types of activities that can be funded with program assistance. Agency officials added that the agencies ensure that program activities directly relate to democracy promotion as broadly illustrated in related program legislation. The officials stated that organizations are expected to work with agency program officers to determine what activities are permitted or appropriate. In addition, they said that program partners and subpartners are expected to spend U.S. government funds consistent with U.S. laws, and that requirements in primary award agreements generally flow down to any subpartners.
USAID has improved its performance and financial monitoring of implementing partners use of program funds by implementing new policies and hiring contractors to improve monitoring and evaluation and to conduct financial internal controls reviews, but GAO found gaps in States financial monitoring. While GAO found some gaps in implementing partners performance planning and reporting, both agencies are taking steps to improve performance monitoring. For financial monitoring, USAID performs financial internal controls reviews of its implementing partners with the assistance of an external auditor. Since 2008, USAID has used a risk-based approach to determine the coverage and frequency of the 30 reviews the auditor has conducted, which have identified weaknesses in implementing partners financial management, procurement, and internal controls. However, because of resource constraints, State did not perform financial internal controls reviews for more than two-thirds of its implementing partners during fiscal years 2010 through 2012. State procured an external financial auditor in September 2012 that plans to review more than half of States implementing partners, and has taken steps toward implementing a risk-based approach for scheduling these reviews. Federal regulations generally require agencies to approve the use of subpartners. GAO found that USAID issued specific guidance in 2011 to its implementing partners on requirements for subpartner approval. While State told GAO it has similar requirements, States requirements are not clearly specified in its written guidance. As a result, State was not provided with the information it would have needed to approve at least 91 subawards and subcontracts that were obligated under eight awards.
Why GAO Did This Study
Since 1996, Congress has appropriated $205 million to USAID and State to support democracy assistance for Cuba. Because of Cuban government restrictions, conditions in Cuba pose security risks to the implementing partnersprimarily NGOsand subpartners that provide U.S. assistance.
For this report, GAO (1) identified current assistance, implementing partners, subpartners, and beneficiaries; (2) reviewed USAIDs and States efforts to implement the program in accordance with U.S. laws and regulations and to address program risks; and (3) examined USAIDs and States monitoring of the use of program funds. This report is a publicly releasable version of a Sensitive But Unclassified Report that GAO issued in December 2012.
What GAO Recommends
GAO is recommending that State take steps to improve its financial monitoring of implementing partners and provide clear guidance for approving subpartners. State concurred with GAOs recommendations and cited steps they are taking to address them.
For more information, contact David Gootnick at (202) 512-3149 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Open
Comments: State has two bureaus that provide grant funding under the Cuba program: the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL) and the Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs (WHA). In April 2013, DRL developed a risk management framework and standard operating procedures to identify high-risk recipients and programs, which would receive increased monitoring of their awards. DRL has since used this risk management framework to determine the order in which its Cuba program partners would undergo program audits conducted by DRL's external auditor. However, WHA did not conduct any program audits of its Cuba program partners in FY2013 and does not plan to do so until the second quarter of FY2014, depending on the availability of funds. We are continuing to monitor WHA's efforts to address this recommendation.
Recommendation: To strengthen State's ability to monitor the use of Cuba democracy program funds, and to enhance financial oversight, the Secretary of State should use a risk-based approach for program audits, including those conducted by an external auditor, that considers, among other factors, specific indicators--such as value of awards, prior deficiencies, oversight coverage, and frequency--for each of State's Cuba program partners.
Agency Affected: Department of State
Status: Open
Comments: State's Bureau of Administration issued written guidance regarding approval for the use of subpartners to all DRL and WHA Cuba program partners in January 2013 and February 2013 respectively. Monitoring of DRL partners' compliance with this guidance has been conducted by DRL and Bureau of Administration officials and by DRL's external auditor; however, WHA has not conducted any monitoring of its partners' compliance with this new guidance. We are continuing to assess WHA's monitoring of its partners' compliance.
Recommendation: To strengthen State's ability to monitor the use of Cuba democracy program funds, and to obtain sufficient information to approve implementing partners' use of subpartners, the Secretary of State should provide clear guidance to implementing partners regarding requirements for approval of the use of subpartners, and monitor implementing partners to ensure that they adhere to these requirements.

Chase questioned
Police departments should consider that people get rowdy and carried away, but is it worth the cost of human life just to bring them in using a high-speed car chase?
WE'VE ALL had it happen. We're driving northbound on Interstate 55 listening to our favorite public radio station, KCRU in Cape Girardeau. Around Perryville, something starts to happen. The station starts to fade because you've gotten out of their coverage area. So you switch to KWMU 90.7 or KTHS 88.1 or WSIE 88.7, the jazz station. For the local station to spend money to build towers to compete with stations out of St. Louis is a waste. I'm a big supporter of public radio. It is all I listen to. But that was a waste of money.
WHY WOULD the Chaffee police officer keep chasing a car into another county when he had the car's license number?
THE PEOPLE of Jackson appreciate the refinishing of the roads, but we'd like to be able to see some lines on the roads so we'll know where the lanes are.
I DISAGREE with schools sending students door to door to sell worthless products claiming the school is to perform some activity and needs funds. I do not support this kind of activity. It isn't teaching children anything positive. Let's cut out this nonsense. People are tired of it, and many students do not like what they're doing.
AS AN avid bicyclist, I want to thank the drivers in the area for their basic courtesy. However, I must remind certain drivers that under Missouri law I have the same right to the road as they do. All motorists must pass a bicycle rider as they would any other vehicle on the road, with safety as the primary rule. Please remember that under Missouri law motorists may not do anything that endangers the bicyclist or pedestrian, even if you think you're doing something legal.
WHEN IT comes (as it surely will) to paying for Medicare or pursuing the was against terror, we will most certainly be told that the war on terror is over and that we have won.
I have put my child's education above my own personal retirement. I will work until I have passed away to see to it that my children get a good education. It is that important to me. In the years to come we may see a time when you need a college degree to work at Wal-Mart.

Childcare Centre Information Booklet ABOUT US Welcome to the HSBC Childcare Centre! Our beautiful, new 85 place Long Day Care centre will provide convenient, high quality care and education to families which will benefit from workplace based childcare. Whilst the majority of the places in the Centre will be reserved for the employees of HSBC Bank, there are still plenty of places available for other families whose parents work in or around the 580 George St building. We are confident that the standard of care and facilities that will be provided at our new centre will be of the highest standard available, reflecting the demands of our clientele. Our commitment is to provide you and your family with a service of the highest quality, so that you can relax in the knowledge that your child is in safe and experienced hands. We understand that the best way for a child to learn is through discovery, and this is best achieved through providing ample opportunities for extended play. Our programming is therefore based upon individual needs and interests. We consider each family unique in structure, culture and values. We respect relationships between children and families, and incorporate this perspective in all interaction with children. EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY Our programs are based upon the principle that the whole child must be developed if they are to become well-adjusted to achieve their full potential. We provide the environment and experiences that will enable your child to grow physically, emotionally, intellectually and socially, through a balance of structured play, exploration learning and group participation. Children at the HSBC Childcare Centre will experience the following: • Care from dedicated staff • Group activities that develop social skills, independence and self-confidence • Active play and equipment for gross motor skills development • Activities to stimulate the imagination, including story time, music and movement • A full range of activities that encourage curiosity and exploration • A School Readiness Program to support the transition from preschool to infant school • A program of age appropriate activities that can be tailored for each individual child • A high child/staff ratio to permit each child the individual attention they require • A learning program that develops cognitive and perceptual skills that support a child's sense of competence and self esteem • Fine motor skills activities such as painting, sand play, crayons, water dough, etc • A positive and accepting environment OUR CENTRE Our centre provides a full service to all children attending including the following: • All meals (full Morning Tea, hot lunch and Afternoon Tea) • Nappies • All bedding and linen • Entertainment – examples include an Easter Show, Christmas show, Kindifarm (baby animals), visits etc Please note, due to the variety of dietary requirements, our centre will not provide formula for babies each day, so we request that each family provide their choice of formula. We will however provide a private space in the nursery for nursing Mothers to visit and maintain their breast feeding program. We recognise Early Childhood as a unique and valuable stage of life and accept that each phase within a child's development is important in its own right. FEE SCHEDULE DETAILS AGE GROUP FEE PER DAY ($) ROOM 1 0-2 Years $95.00 ROOM 2 2-3 years $92.50 ROOM 3 3-5 years $90.00 CASUAL CARE/EMERGENCY CARE All Rooms $95.00 Our centre has been designed to deliver best practice design and accessibility requirements, ensuring that we accommodate all children with special needs. We strive to ensure our service is available to all children, regardless of their abilities. The HSBC Childcare Centre will be registered for Accreditation with the National Childcare Accreditation Council (NCAC). Centres registered and accredited through the NCAC are eligible to receive Child Care Benefit (CCB). CCB is a subsidy provided by the Commonwealth Government to approved long day care child care centers. This subsidy is provided to support families to meet the costs of child care and can be made available to families through reduced fees in a service. Parents may apply for Child Care Benefits through their local Family Assistance Office on 136150. However parents will require the Centre's Provider Number, which can be obtained from the Centre Director on opening. CHILD CARE TAX REBATE The Federal Government provides parents with a 30% rebate – a non refundable tax offset that is limited to 30% of your out of pocket child care expenses. Out of pocket expenses are your total child care fees less your Child Care Benefit. The maximum amount parents are entitled to claim for each child is $4,096.00. As a non-refundable tax offset, this rebate is used to reduce the tax you would ordinarily have paid over the year. SECURITY Our Centre features a high level of security with electric entry and an intercom facility. Your child's safety and security is paramount to us and we observe secure pick-up and drop-off procedures. PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT Parent participation sends a strong positive message to your child that you support them and are part of the child care environment – we love involved parents and value your input. There are many opportunities for parental involvement at our centre, these include:- • Participation in excursions • Attend special activities and functions in the Centre • Volunteer time • Attend parent/teacher nights OUR STAFF: We believe that our staff are our greatest asset, and as a result we pride ourselves on not only the quality of staff that we choose for our Centres, but also the way we look after them to ensure their happiness and therefore work is continually of the highest standard. A typical HSBC Childcare staff member will be: • Outstanding in their field, well-trained, enthusiastic, and motivated • Warm, caring, and genuinely interested in serving the best interests of each child • Approachable and happy to discuss each child's development with parents • Dedicated to continual self-improvement EMPLOYER APPROACH: As an employer our intention is to be recognized as an "employer of choice" in the industry. To achieve this we: • Acknowledge our staff for their efforts and commitment to their vocation • Recognise the invaluable contribution they make to each child • Provide ongoing in-service training and development opportunities • Provide staff financial support to further their childcare qualifications We believe this approach is a positive investment which supports the development of positive relationships between staff and families. OUR ROOMS: ROOM 1 (0-2 YEARS OF AGE) The first five years in a child's life is the most important time to develop a good foundation for learning. Our Nursery and its programs are designed to develop awareness of both self and the world around the young child within a warm, caring and family-based environment. Quality programs focus on sensory learning and development. This prepares children for future learning and the transition into our Toddler Room. As our children gain more independence, emphasis is placed on developing their social skills such as sharing or playing alongside others and the development of imagination through creative play and exploration of their environment. In our Nursery room, our routines are very flexible, allowing children to move freely around the room to discover, learn, create and develop. All of our babies are shown affection, held and nurtured to ensure that they receive every opportunity to develop to their highest potential, in a safe, happy, stimulating and loving atmosphere. ROOM 2 (2-3 YEARS OF AGE) This is a very busy time for your toddler because they are so intent on discovering new things about themselves and their environment. Beginning to walk, trying to talk, learning to listen, climbing on things, investigating cupboards and trying to take things apart are all examples of your toddler's growth and development. Our program includes a variety of stimulating activities, small group interactions, quiet time, free-play and independent exploration. Our staff will provide encouragement and offer a safe, secure environment as these busy little people develop self-confidence. ROOM 3 (3-5 YEARS OF AGE) Our aim is to prepare and transition your child into formal schooling through education and experience. We expand on early literacy and numeric skills, as well as encourage creativity, self-help, reasoning- cause and effect, social and life skills. Play-based learning environments offer diverse opportunities to explore, discover and create. They foster qualities such as curiosity, perseverance and risk taking. It is believed these qualities motivate lifelong learners but are difficult to invoke if not self discovered when young. HOW DO I REGISTER?
