Cultural development is about how we experience and celebrate our cultural diversity. Children are encouraged to consider their understanding and appreciation of how people live their lives now and in the past. We give the children opportunities to value their own cultural heritage and showing respect for other people’s values and beliefs. We ensure that children experience a range of arts, language, food, music, artefacts and other cultural practices.
