25.01.2022 Attention Grenfell! We're having a games day these school holidays and would love to see you there!

24.01.2022 2020 has been the year of ups and downs. Everything we held close to our hearts we had to find a different way of doing !

19.01.2022 R U OK ? Day sits a bit odd for me personally. We shouldnt need 1 day a year to remind us to show kindness, compassion , and to check in on our mates. Every day brings me joy when i hear one of our team , either staff or volunteers , checking in , giving a smile or just making people feel they are seen!... We do not promise to fix everything , but we can promise to listen and help refer to the best place that can. So today or any day of the week, we invite you to call in , grab a tea or coffee and just have a chat. Our door is always open and we can always find an ear to listen. We also have some yummy free cookies to have with that tea and coffee , we love helping Lynch’s Cookie Co. Locals Supporting Locals Fran xxx

These ladies smiled and explored and all want to certainly come back ( Cody even asked to sleep !) This afternoon we held our first lot of swimming lessons . Our amazing swimming instructor Grace , couldn’t believe how much these children concentrated on their lessons. The ...no distractions of noise , splashing and other people being in the pool , is definitely a winner . The shade sails covering the pool were an extra bonus ! Locals Supporting Locals Fran xxx

14.01.2022 What a fun morning at playgroup with some National Science Week experiments. The children had lots of fun seeing a balloon blow up and and a volcano erupt when combining vinegar and baking soda to cause a chemical reaction.

03.01.2022 Learning through play is a term used in education to describe how a child can learn to make sense of the world around them. Through play children can develop social and cognitive skills, mature emotionally, and gain the self-confidence required to engage in new experiences and environments. This past fortnight we have been focusing on our fine motor skills which is the coordination of small muscles and movements. You can help your child learn through play and develop their fine motor skills by using play dough, scissors, drawing and household items as shown in the pictures.
