Abstract

The importance of education should not be taken for granted even for remote and almost inaccessible areas, far from urbanity. There are many benefits of implementing an early childhood education program for children as well as their parents; however, doing so in a remotely aboriginal community area can be an entirely different thing. This can involve significantly highest construction costs brought about by highest transportation costs; and also slower construction project turnaround time due to the mere distance between the suppliers and the construction location, etc. The objective of this paper is to evaluate on the implementation of an early ...

“There is a general consensus that ‘community’ is good” (Barke and MacFarlane 1). While this argument may seem simple, the context behind the statement is deceptively complex.

Social, religious and construction groups employ an entirely different interpretation of the meaning of community, indicating that there is much more to be considered than a simple boundary drawn on a map. Communities as a term began as a recognition that groups ...
