CHCECE026

Hi Lorina,
i am currently working on CHCECE026 asessment. could you please help me with the following questions.

1) Case Study - At High Street Child Care, the foyer is filled with colourful signs and posters of happy-looking families for variety of cultures. There is a cosy couch to sit on and the noticeboard demonstrates the celebrations occurring within the community. From the ceiling hangs the word ‘Welcome’ in a variety of languages.
A new Vietnamese family has little English. They enter the children’s play space. Educators are busy at a variety of tasks. There are whispers saying, ‘You go you speak to them!’ the family cling together waiting for someone to make them feel welcome and safe.
A child now arrives with her father, Reg, Kymberly, an educator, comes over and says ‘Happy Birthday, Mindy! We have a cake for you’. Mindy’s dad is angry as he has explained to Kymberly the Mindy will not celebrate her birthday due to their religious beliefs (they are Jehovah’s Witnesses)

a)How would you ensure the Vietnamese family is made to feel welcome in your service? Provide two ideas

b)What knowledge, skills, expertise or aspects of family life and culture could you encourage the Vietnamese family to share with the service and the group of children

c)How would you know about Reg’s cultural request if you were Mindy’s educator

many thanks
Tej
