24.01.2022 Happy Birthday to our amazing centre manger!

24.01.2022 IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR FAMILIES WHO HAVE A CHILD ENROLLED IN CHILD CARE: Whether youve lost your job or are keeping your child home to prevent the spread of coronavirus, please dont un-enrol your child. If youve lost your job or are working reduced hours, theres financial support you can access. Please dont just pull your child out of care.... To access financial support, log on to MyGov and apply for temporary financial hardship (see below screenshot). This means the government may pay your childcare fees IN FULL for 13 weeks. If youre choosing to keep your child home, the government has extended the number of allowable absences that can be covered by the Child Care Subsidy (CCS). This may support you to keep your child home and still receive the CCS. Remember, keeping your child enrolled will help your child care service to continue paying educators. It will also ensure that your child care service doesnt go bankrupt and that you can return to work when our economy is ready to get back on track.

10.01.2022 We would very excitingly like to introduce our Kinder teacher Sharon. Hello families, My name is Sharon, and I am super excited about my opportunity to work here at Great Beginnings Curlewis. I have been teaching for 7 years now and firmly believe children are our future, I work hard to provide an environment for children to feel safe, loved, and respected and above all to have fun!!... I look forward to starting on Monday, meeting all my new children and families. I look forward to us all working together. Please come and say hello when you see me. See more

10.01.2022 My Fingers are Melting!! Pre-kinder children would like to share with our families a special experience that happened today. Today, we set out a sensory experience called Oobleck. Oobleck is made out of cornflour and water, with a little bit of food dye to add some colour.... Once the Oobleck was made, children took turns at the table to explore the texture. While Reeve picked some up, he turned and said the oobleck feels like my fingers are melting and it feels like bricks when it was hard Ava said It felt like powder Bonnie said It feels like melted cheese The children were very engaged with the experience, making balls of Oobleck in their hands and watched it melt through their fingers and back into the tray. This experience allowed the children to manipulate objects and use their creative imaginations. Sensory play is a very important role in children’s development as it helps with exploring different textures and improves fine motor skills. See more
