24.01.2022 Our fathers day packages have arrived to the children houses and they where super excited to receive a package under their names!

24.01.2022 Can't go to the cinemas so we bought the cinemas to us! The children have been learning about dinosaurs so we thought a fun way to extend on their learning was watching "Dino Time" and discussing the different types of dinosaurs they saw during the movie. The children's knowledge on dinosaurs is rapidly increasing as they know a lot of the different names.... #DinoTime #PopcornMaker #MovieTime

18.01.2022 "Take cover!" "Let's use team work!" "Everybody stand back." "Make sure it's stable!" What a fun outdoor experience initiated by the children! The recycled reels made the perfect stacking blocks and the children decided to work together to stack them as high as possible. They realised quickly that they needed to negotiate whose turn it was in order to make the tower balance. #LearningThroughPlay... #RecycledMaterials #LoosePartsPlay See more

18.01.2022 Big thank you to everyone who has donated. We have been able to put together 8 hampers so far. Go team go!!! We still have 1.5 weeks until delivery. #IndigenousCulture... #Hampers #SupportingTheCommunity See more

17.01.2022 We cannot wait for next week's class! Thanks Clifton Beach

16.01.2022 With a great interest of dinosaurs shown by the children lately, we decided to extend upon this by setting up a dinosaur hunt exploration game. Each child was given a small tub with hidden dinosaurs which were covered by Bi-carb soda. Alongside their tubs, they had a communal bowl of vinegar with their own pipette to use. Miss Rhiannan encouraged the children to transfer the vinegar from the bowl into their tubs of bicarbonate soda using their pipettes. Miss Rhiannon didnt t...ell the children what was inside the tub to add to the extra mystery and excitement. Working together, they supported each other to figure out how to use the pipettes. "You squeeze and watch the stuff go in." Julian explained to his peers. "Just like this!" Levi said as he transitioned the vinegar to the bi-carb soda! "Look!" Gabriel exclaimed, pointing at all the bubbles fizzing as the vinegar touched the soda. Slowly, slowly the bicarbonate soda started melting off from the dinosaurs in the bottom of the tub, releasing their legs and heads through the powder substance! "DINOSAURS" they all yelled in excitement! #Dinosaurs #ALittleGeniusGoesALongWay #ChildrenInterestsFirst

16.01.2022 The walking colours experiment Our learning from home program is becoming very popular with our families and children.

16.01.2022 Video Game Workout Our Glacier and Sunset children loved this "Level Up" activity! They made it through the obstacles to move on to the next level. They were jumping over bananas and running from dinosaurs. The children and the educators had the best afternoon completing physical tasks and following instructions. #ALittleGeniusGoesALongWay

07.01.2022 Every couple of days we post on Xplor an activity or experiment for our children to do whilst at home during this lock down period. We love hearing that the children enjoyed doing these experiences.... Magic milk is so easy and fun to do at home. If you would like to do it at home heres what you will need: Put a few drops of food coloring in a shallow bowl of milk, and theyll stay that way - as self-contained blobs. But add a little dish soap to a toothpick or a Q-tip and touch the food coloring, and the colors will swirl around on their own like magic. It all has to do with surface tension: At first, the food coloring stays on the surface, but the soap causes a chemical reaction that breaks the surface tension. #LearningFromHome #StayingConnected #ALittleGeniusGoesALongWay

06.01.2022 This morning we had little helpers during our zoom class. Everyone was so excited to see each other! The children just wanted to chat about what they have been doing. One child even said "oh I miss you J." Keeping these connections with the children at home and the children who are still attending is so important. They are definitely missing their friends and the strong bonds with their educators. Thank you Miss Kylie for jumping on whilst at home at the moment. The children loved seeing you and meeting your little one!
