22.01.2022 During September we have been investigating the lifecycle of our silkworms. Last year we were given silkworms, and have carefully kept their eggs for the past 12 months. The children eagerly arrive each day to examine the growth and development of the silkworms. They use art to record their observations and take responsibility for helping to care for their environment. Thank you to all the families that have been helping to supply us with fresh mulberry leaves, and Lana for sharing mulberries with everyone to taste!

22.01.2022 Celebrating Onam 2020 with a shared feast of Dahl vegetarian curry, rice and flat bread. The culture of every child and their family is understood, valued and respected.

21.01.2022 Thank you everyone that participated in Book Week 2020! The children and educators had a great week taking on the roles of their favourite book characters.

19.01.2022 Thank you to everyone that contributed to knitting beanies for premature and sick newborn babies. We have posted over 70 beanies to the Miracle Babies Foundation, along with drawings from the children with the hope of sending love and strength to their families.

18.01.2022 Today we were lucky enough to have another visit from our friends at Bunyah Local Aboriginal Lands Council - Amos, William and Chris. We took delivery of some beautiful hand-crafted log seating to use in our Yarning Circle outside. The children thanked the men for their hard work by singing some of our favourite songs for them.

16.01.2022 A reminder that Book Week starts tomorrow! We are so excited to see all of our little characters bring their favourite books to life!

05.01.2022 Outdoor Classroom Day is a global movement to make time outdoors part of every child’s day. The children at Discovery love engaging in the outdoor environment today and everyday.

03.01.2022 This week the children participated in many interactive and fun experiments as we celebrated National Science Week. The highlight of the week was definitely the launch of the rocket ship experiment set up for the whole centre to watch! We hope we have sparked their interest in science and given them lots to talk about at home.

01.01.2022 This week we are participating in National Child Protection Week with a Teddy Bear's Picnic and sausage sizzle. National Child Protection Week will celebrate its 30th year this year with the theme- "Putting children first" Putting children first means prioritising the safety and wellbeing of children. To grow up well children need to feel safe and loved, have a chance to play and explore, have a say in decisions that affect them, and access to essential things like food, shelter and healthcare.
