Playtime's ethos is aimed at optimizing each child's learning potential. To achieve this aim Playtime strives to create the warmth and nurturing environment necessary for each child to feel safe and loved. While the child's physical needs are met, they are being stimulated in ALL areas of development. The Playtime team are aware of their accountability before God in training and nurturing these precious children through delivering quality education at a grass roots level. A child does not attend Playtime in isolation. The child's whole family becomes a part of the Playtime family and the journey is one of growth and development in all spheres of life. The love, acceptance and guidance received by each child is filtered down through the whole family and influences the community as a whole. In this way Playtime has become a community institution and has successfully built a very firm educational foundation for countless Port Elizabeth families.
