We embrace and teach children about equality and the importance to be treated equally; we advocate the rights of children by incorporating the UN rights of a child where it states that Every child, everywhere (Article 1): Children should neither benefit nor suffer because of their race, colour, gender, language, religion, nationality, social or ethnic origin, or because of any political or other opinion; because of their caste, property or birth status; or because they are disabled. Inclusiveness is the main drive for our service and we hope you would love to become a part of this wonderful centre.
