Mission Statement
Centennial Infant and Child Centre is committed to the development and education of young children with developmental challenges. Centennial focuses on the individual needs of each child and family through early intervention at home, in our integrated preschool and kindergarten programs, and through participation in community programs. Centennial values and builds on the unique abilities and strengths of children with special needs, and encourages all of them to develop the confidence and skills to find their place in the world.

A Day at the Centre
We help children with special needs begin to learn strategies which will help them to develop and function as independently as possible in society. Staff and families set goals through which these strategies will be achieved. All aspects of a child’s development are considered. We believe the goals are best accomplished through an individualized program. In our preschool this is enhanced with a one-to-one adult/child ratio and with the inclusion of normally developing children. We work directly with families to lend emotional support and to encourage the optimal development of each child. This is an on-going process in which the staff and the family learn from each other.
