The following discussions were had:
· Active Supervision - constant head counts, facility classroom door is locked (door handle covered). While outside, staff sometimes actively supervise smaller groups.
· Lead in Water - more information can be found at https://www.fraserhealth.ca/health-info/health-topics/drinking-water/. A filtered fountain is used daily for drinking water.
· Promoting Active Play in the program. The facility practices their active play policy - outside play occurs daily. The facility has access to the school gym and an undercover area.
· Temporary placements were discussed.
Additional discussions:
Fire drills/earthquake drills
The children were seen to engage socially, interact with staff in a respectful manner (listening, following routines) and play with a variety of materials (dramatic play, art, blocks and books). The staff were seen to get down to the children's level when talking, lead an active circle time, speak to the children with gentle voices and respond to their needs immediately. There is evidence of on-going monitoring to ensure compliance to the legislation.
