25.01.2022 We have been donated some bread from a local Organisation and would like to offer this to families this afternoon on pickup. Happy Monday!

24.01.2022 Jeans for Genes Day is on August 7 2020... Every minute, 12 kids globally are born with a birth defect or incurable genetic disease. Many are at an even greater risk right now from COVID-19. You can help this August by joining Jeans for Genes. Fundraise, shop, donate or rock your best denim looks at work, school, home or online! Donations welcome on the day

23.01.2022 We have it all happening this week! The playground renovation has begun. We will be without the sandpit and paved area for approximately 3-4 weeks as our new Riverbed goes in. This area is fenced off, however the children will be able to watch all the progress as it happens! Please see the plans and risk management plan in the credenza in the foyer for detailed information.

21.01.2022 This morning we had a visit from Healthy Harold. We learnt about sun safety, water safety and the importance of road safety, which builds on the information we have learning throughout the year and how to make sure we put safety into practice, in all environments.

20.01.2022 Our November Wellness Month is here! Don't forget Wacky sock day on Wednesday this week! There are still socks available to purchase for $6 from the centre if you are interested :)

20.01.2022 A timely reminder that Daylight saving starts this Sunday at 2am. This also means that we will start our Summer Routine from Tuesday after the long weekend, with all children starting outside each morning.

20.01.2022 Have you got a spare 4 minutes? We are currently reflecting on our current communication practices and would like your feedback.

18.01.2022 Toddler room parents/carers, the children of the toddlers room are working hard this week to decorate their own Christmas baubles to be displayed on our room Christmas tree. This is going to be a process as we aim to add different elements over the next two weeks so we ask that for now they stay at care and displayed on our tree, until the completed baubles are sent home with our end of year portfolios in weeks to come, ready for Christmas. Thanks in advance!

15.01.2022 Raising Children.net has provided some resources for families on how to communicate with children about coronavirus that we thought families might find relevant. Talking can: - Help children make sense of what they have been seeing, hearing and feeling. - Promote hope by sharing information about the actions being taken in the community and at home to respond to COVID-19

08.01.2022 Play is an activity where children show their remarkable ability for exploration, imagination and decision making. The type of play children engage in and its p...urposes change over the course of childhood from infancy to adolescence. StartingBlocks.gov.au’s resource offers advice on why play is important for early years, and how it supports a child’s development and learning https://bit.ly/3muiPuS

04.01.2022 This week in the preschool room, we are exploring primary and secondary colours. We have been reading the story Mouse paint where three white mice change colours from yellow, red and blue to purple, orange and green. We have incorporated mice puppets to also tell the story. To collate the information of colour changes, we have the opportunity to blend primary paint colours to create our own colours. Our favourite experience this week would be exploring magnetic tiles with torches. We have created our own colours using light. Pictures by Casey.
