20.01.2022 Welcoming Wendy to our Centre family. Wendy is a Speech Pathologist whose years of experience in the field will be invaluable for our Educators to assimilate. With Wendy’s guided teachings, our Educators can use their learned skills in their everyday practice to help improve our children’s outcomes in language and communication acquisition.

20.01.2022 Ted is still travelling. Today he is in Thallon. Making friends with the hairy nosed Wombat.

20.01.2022 Adopt a Koala at Macquarie Koala Hospital, named Balmoral Mini. The adoption helps the hospital with caring for sick and injured Koalas as well as their habitat. Our Senior Toddlers were quite excited about the adoption and has shown care and attention to the Koala toy representative. They have learned important facts about Koalas like the type of gum leaves Koalas like to eat. Their interest keeps growing which their Educator has extended by creating their own very Koala hospital but extended to all types of animals.

We appreciate Greg’s support with providing these seedlings to us that enables the children to learn and grow with gardening.

09.01.2022 Holly has decided it is dress up day today. Hamburger it is!!!!! It’s the simple things in life that make us smile Happy Thursday everyone.....

08.01.2022 Using our hand eye coordination to thread the bottle tops, the children were able to use their mathematical concepts to count the bottle tops that were used in this activity.

08.01.2022 The start of our Mother’s Day celebrations have begun.. This year will be a little different with how we celebrate but we still want our beautiful mums to know how much we love them. Our first Mothers Day appreciation is our display set up in our foyer so please feel free for your child to leave a special little note just for you

08.01.2022 Our vacation care program has kept the children busy and inspired new skills and interest to form. Yesterday was String Art using nails hammered into boards. The first letter of their name was drawn on paper and used as a template, nails were hammered into position, then wool yarn or threads were wrapped around the nail. Such creative and skilful bunch of youths. Wonder where this skill will lead them to next!

07.01.2022 Learning in Action. Cooking with the children has the capacity to ignite children’s curiosity about the world of food. Cooking reinforces literacy, numeracy and mathematical concepts that the children have explored and experimented with during play. Today the Kindergarten 2 have made Honey Joys , which went down a treat.

06.01.2022 Miss Kylie and Matilda are still out holidaying exploring the outback. We hope you are having a great time and learning lots on your visits. Great photos with Travelling Ted.
