What Is Adventure Club?

MISSION STATEMENT

Adventure Club Program's mission is to work with the community and families to provide out-of-school care in a safe, nurturing environment and to create interesting, developmentally appropriate curriculum choices that challenge children to grow physically, socially, emotionally, and intellectually.

VISION STATEMENT

Adventure Club  Program's vision is to help our Warrensburg R6 school children become safe, healthy, and academically, social-emotional, and physically successful members of our community. Within the program’s daily schedule, each child will have opportunities to create, explore the environment, investigate through problem-solving and personal interaction skills, and learn through “hands-on” experiences.  

STATEMENT OF GOALS

  • To create a relaxed, trusting, homelike atmosphere where children are encouraged to pursue their own interests, develop friendships and grow in confidence, independence, and respect for themselves and others.

  • To provide a caring staff, who show genuine respect for the children and have confidence in each child's potential and promote each child's self-esteem.

  • To create a stable environment that is inviting, comfortable, attractive, orderly, manageable by the children, and a happy, exciting place.

  • To provide for the children a variety of developmentally appropriate activities, including expressive art, construction, active play, sports, games, dramatic play, science, cooking, crafts and reading.

  • To frame a schedule that allows time for each child to observe, to reflect and to become absorbed in activities according to his/her own interests and talents.

  • To give individual guidance to children based on careful observation of each child's needs and in keeping with parental values and goals.

  • To offer children opportunities for involvement in and service to the community so that they may develop a sense of participation and contribution; and that they may begin to realize how interdependent the various elements in a community are.
