Guest Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 I'm hitting a brick wall! I know that none of your know my setting but I'm trying to put together a marketing flyer (I've given up on a motto) and trying to think up words that describe my setting e.g. fun, exciting, calming, friendly. Can you clever people throw some words at me, perhaps some you would use to describe your settings? To help you, we are based in a village hall, we use one room, we have lots of colourful furniture and we are a happy friendly bunch. All words gratefully accepted. ppp Quote
Guest Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 Hi PPP Happy, friendly, confident, I like 'our children are confident learners'. Bright, welcoming, open Relaxed, friendly (again), caring Safe, secure, settled Happy (again), fun, enjoyable HTH! Quote
HappyMaz Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 I went on some training with Tim Gill last week (he of the research into risk, etc) who said that you should never describe your setting as 'safe' because he worries that you are giving some parents a false impression that you will always return their child to them unscratched, unbumped and unharmed. Thought I'd throw that into the mix - I was mighty smug when I realised that we don't have the 'safe' word in our slogan. Ours is "where children come to learn through play in a relaxed, caring environment" although I can't claim any responsibility for that because I inherited it! I'll need some more time to think though P3 because my brain is frazzled! Maz Quote
sunnyday Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 I'm in the 'frazzled brain' club too..........but how about something like 'where every child is valued' - I have put that line in my SEF Quote
eyfs1966 Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 What about including concepts such as quality, purposeful play, valuing every individual, highly recommended (I am sure), quotes from Ofsted etc???? Quote
