24.01.2022 Thank you to the crews from #CairnsSouthFireStation who visited to teach us about fire safety and the important job fire fighters do. Our response so far has been through lots of exciting dramatic play, representing our understanding through the arts, reading books and learning a fire truck song. #QFES #learningthroughplay #CandK

22.01.2022 We have been reading stories with Yidinji words during #Reconciliation Week like Bip the Snapping Bungaroo and Who’s that Jumbun in the Log.

20.01.2022 We celebrated our class reuniting last week after COVID-19 lockdown by making these beautiful class chandeliers. Each thread is connected as a symbol of how each child is connected with our kindy.

19.01.2022 Our magnet wall in action - a chance for hands on exploration of motion, force, elevation, incline, speed and more.

18.01.2022 Maybe you are already creating family rituals over the kindy holiday break?

18.01.2022 Our classroom is ready for Term 4.

16.01.2022 In our last week the children spent time reflecting on what they liked about kindy this year. Common themes were around outside play and relationships. We believe listening to our children makes us better educators.

16.01.2022 June 29th is International Mud Day (yes there is such a thing)! Our Kindy children can enjoy the mud patch year round - read about some of the benefits here.

16.01.2022 Our classroom is ready and we are excited to welcome our 2021 families next week.

15.01.2022 With distressing content circulating, it’s a good reminder that there are steps we can take to stay safe online. You can help young children stay safe online by...: Being with, and watching with, your child when they use devices, so you can supervise content and apps. Taking the time to play and be with your child, they may ask questions and share their worries. Limiting news coverage, and being aware of the conversations you have with other adults. Children tune in to body language and tone of voice. For more information, read the eSafety Commissioner’s guide > https://www.esafety.gov.au//skills-ad/online-safety-basics and the following tips for parents from Early Childhood Australia http://thespoke.earlychildhoodaustralia.org.au/tips-parent/ If your child has inadvertently seen something and/or you have any concerns, please reach out for support from: Kids Helpline - 1800 55 1800 - phone support is there all day, every day. Online support is open from 8am-midnight every day (AEST). Lifeline - 13 11 14 - phone support all day, every day. Online support 7pm-4am daily (AEST).

15.01.2022 Child Protection Week starts on 6th September. See below for some great webinar events.

13.01.2022 Some of our learning during Reconciliation Week so far as we Acknowledge the Yidinji people, traditional owners of the land upon which we learn and play. Using the fire pit in our yarning circle has been a highlight of our learning so far and we linked this to a Wiradjuri story about fire.

11.01.2022 Our dwarf sunflowers are attracting the bees and giving our children a real life, hands on research opportunity.#learningthroughnature #candk

11.01.2022 Come down to Bunnings Cairns today to support our kindy sausage sizzle. Located at the nursery end, you’ll find our amazing parent volunteers (and delicious sausages)!!

10.01.2022 Today this beauty emerged from its chrysalis after about 12 weeks - a lesson in patience and the awe and wonder nature provides for our children.

05.01.2022 We are busy meeting our 2021 families - an exciting time!

05.01.2022 We have enjoyed eating and cooking with vegetables from our garden in Term 3 and added some new seeds and seedlings this week ready for Term 4. I wonder how big they will be after the holidays?

03.01.2022 As we head into the holiday period we want to wish all our families, past and future, a safe and happy Christmas. Enjoy these wonderful art pieces created by our 2020 students as a gift for their family - priceless! #candk #reggioemiliaapproach #learningthroughplay

01.01.2022 This Cairns Birdwing chrysalis is at the perfect height for observation by the children - when will the butterfly emerge?#Natureplay

01.01.2022 Thank you to Bravehearts and Ditto for visiting our Kindy this week. We know all about yes and no feelings, private parts and that we should run and tell someone we can trust if we have a no feeling. #Bravehearts #ChildSafety

01.01.2022 The children have been working on clay sculptures for their Dad over the past few weeks. Here is a sample of the movie they made to communicate what they think is special about their Dad. #FathersDay #ReggioInspired #CandK
