25.01.2022 Hello families and friends. Our Centre will remain open this week to support families who require care during lockdown. Our educators are incredibly experienced in maintaining high levels of safety, cleaning and hygiene in all our centres. Just remember to wear your mask at all times when dropping off and picking up! We ask that only one family member enters the centre. Thank you for your support and feel free to reach out if you need any assistance or have any questions. See you all tomorrow.

24.01.2022 In the Senior Toddlers Room we are learning all about sustainability, the children recycle their food scraps everyday and place them into the compost bins. Today we are learning about caring for our environment , planting plants and using the liquid from our compost to help our new plants grow. In order for children to have respect for the environment that they live in, you have to involve them in the process. Learning Outcome 2: Children Are Connected With And Contribute To ...Their World * Show growing appreciation and care for natural and constructed environments. * Explore relationships with other living and non-living things and observe notice and respond to change. * Develop an awareness of the impact of human activity on environments and the interdependence of living things. Great Work to the Children and Educators making a change to the world in which we all live and learn in.

23.01.2022 Happy New Years from our staff to your families. We hope you have as much fun as our Senior Toddler Children had today with their dancing disco...

22.01.2022 We would like to wish our fabulous educators a very happy Educators Day. We can’t thank you enough for all you do to enrich our little people lives and learning.

22.01.2022 Wow thank you to one of our amazing families... the appreciation and generosity you show us is much appreciated each and every day. We all love what we do everyday for all the children at our Centre.

22.01.2022 Sensory Play Did you know that Sensory bottles are often referred to as calm down bottles. When a sensory bottle has items such as glitter in it that moves slowly, children are often mesmerised by watching the slow descent and this then calms their breathing and helps them regulate themselves and their emotions. The Pre-Kindergarten Children enjoying using the the Sensory Bottles each day and watch as the Glitter and Pom poms work their way through the spacer and into the other bottle. The bottle acts as a vortex, when you make the water spin in the bottles. The bottles are really interesting to watch and an great conversation starter with the children.

22.01.2022 Play builds empathy, compassion concentration and sharing skills #seniortoddlers

21.01.2022 Look who came and had a Centre tour at our Centre today!! The children explored wonder in their environment when a blue tounge lizard ventured into the yard looking for some sun to warm his body. We watched as he moved from around the pot plants, into the sandpit, and then finally off into the bushes. The children commented on his colours and also noticed how his blue tounge went in and out of his mouth as he walked by, they said he was saying hello The children watched from afar and it was definitely a conversation starter today. Learning Outcome 2: Children Are Connected With And Contribute To Their World.
