23.01.2022 Looking for another way to entertain the children and get out and about this summer? How about celebrating the iconic Australian TV show, Playschool as it turns 50! The South Australian Maritime Museum is currently running an exhibition on Playschool until the 31st of January 2021. Here at Halifax Street, we often listen to and sings song from Playschool which are enjoyed by both children and educators! ... Where? South Australian Maritime Museum, 126 Lipson Street, Port Adelaide. Cost? An image of pricing is attached in this post.

12.01.2022 On Thursday 7th of Jan, we had science day at Halifax Street! Each room explored different experiences and themes throughout the day, such as cause and effect and nature. In room one, we made little volcanoes out of bicarb soda and added food colouring and vinegar. After adding the vinegar, we watched in amazement as the food colouring and bicarb soda fizzled out. ... In room two, we took magnifying glasses outside to explore different plants and insects in our garden. In room 3/4, we also made volcanoes and took turns in adding the ingredients together. We also combined water, food colouring and washing detergent together to see what would happen! These experiences facilitated a number of conversations across the age groups: ‘What will happen?’ ‘What will happen next?’ ‘What colours can we see?’ ‘What can you see?’ ‘Why is this happening?’ These conversations assisted us in our language development, listening to others and thinking of different ideas. Science day was a great way for us to explore different things in a hands on way.

10.01.2022 Last Friday we had bright colour day, and encouraged everyone to come to Halifax wearing something colourful. Here, some of our educators are getting into the spirit of the day!

08.01.2022 Thank you so much Halifax community. Your generosity in your support for Sylvie has seen us exceed our target fundraising amount within 24 hours, with a current total of $3,675! There is still time to donate if you wish. I know that Sylvie appreciates your kindness and support. Wishing you all a very happy Christmas and a peaceful holiday. ... Love Kate See more

04.01.2022 As we settle back into the new year, it is always a good reminder to be aware of exclusion periods after certain illnesses. SA Health has created these helpful images to make it easier to determine when your little one can come back to care.

02.01.2022 A big shout out and thank you to our Halifax Educators who demonstrate an ethic of care every day in all they do. They work with skill, kindness and dedication. So grateful to work with this bunch and looking forward to celebrating with them today!

02.01.2022 The lovely Sarah is leaving us to spend more time with her new baby Rory. We will miss her very much. We look forward to welcoming a new member to our team soon. Please help us recruit a dedicated and high quality educator by sharing this advertisement with your networks.

01.01.2022 Happy new year and welcome back to our new and current families! We all hope you enjoyed the festive season. Just a friendly reminder that the centre now opens at 7:30 am and families are now able to come inside the centre to drop your little ones off. ... Finally, tomorrow is also t-shirt decorating day at the centre. Please provide a plain shirt for your child to decorate in their room to take home at the end of the day. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you all back in the centre for drop-off and pick-up times.
