22.01.2022 Educators Day 2020. As we get closer to celebrating our Wonderful and talented educators, we are encouraging our families to write a thank you/Appreciation note to each of your child educators for us to share with them on our Family tree in our parent hub. We appreciated how hard our educators work and the dedication they have for their job. This year we have something super special planned for our Educators and we need your help with ensuring our educators know how amazing ...they are. We have created an educators day area by our Sign in and out kiosks with tools to help you write your special note, once this is complete please leave it with one of our friendly office staff. Thank you for your Help, We are so excited to celebrate this day.

22.01.2022 The Kindergarten children used music today as stimulus for their daily drawing journals. Music assists the children to explore creativity through listening to sound and evokes feelings and emotions which they then record down in their own way onto paper.

22.01.2022 Happy Fathers Day to all our special dads today. We hope you have an enjoyable day with family. From all of us here at Green Leaves Forest Springs.
