19.01.2022 Kids on Campus - still open for business and still taking enrolments! Our Kids on Campus Early Learning Centre is still operating, and we welcome all our enrolled children into our daily programs. We assure you, our families and community, that we are working hard to continue to provide a safe and hygienic environment for you and your children to attend. Read more via https://bit.ly/3iYRAXx

18.01.2022 Its a difficult time for families at the moment. We want to assure our community that for those families who still require childcare services, we are practising safe social distancing and extremely cautious hygiene with the children. It can be a confusing time for little ones, who are sensitive to their parents stress and the changes in their family routine. So keeping their day as routine as possible, while adhering to the Government requirements, is of our upmost importance. We have been using this as an opportunity to assist the children in developing good hygiene practices through educators role modelling, repetition and science experiments. Stay safe everyone!

17.01.2022 In this unprecedented time some parents are finding themselves a little overwhelmed facing a complete change in their families routine. It is totally understandable for you to be feeling like this with all the extra duties that you are taking on within your homes. As if there isnt already too many! Here at Kids on Campus we are dedicated to our kids learning and development and this remains even for those who are not attending our centre at the moment. For those of you who ...are at home and struggling to find ways to entertain and educate your children, we have created a list of resources to help. In this article you will find links to PDF printouts including things like recipes to get your kids involved in the kitchen, fun activities that keep them exercising and even some creative ways to help them develop handwriting skills. This resource will be continually updated over time as we come up with more things that help parents who are at home with their kids. So make sure you contact us and let us know if there are any particular skill sets you would like us to create some helpful ideas around. Be sure to bookmark the page as this is also a handy tool for school holidays too! Stay safe everyone!

16.01.2022 Lots of art exploration this morning! Our children spent some time outside this morning painting boxes from our recycle station. Painting 3D objects challenges the young artist to use different motions, movement and muscles. The children explored creativity, mixing colours and immersing themselves in their art.

15.01.2022 Some people may not be aware of this, but Kids on Campus has been operating out of a little centre in Mitta Mitta too! Our Mitta Mitta families are a part of our Kids on Campus community and we are so glad we can help out families in more rural areas such as this. Here are some pictures from the centre recently. If you are in Mitta Mitta and have been seeking some childcare options, please contact us for a chat.

15.01.2022 A look back in time - to the first build of our wonderful Centre and the official opening in 1992!

15.01.2022 Last week the children joined the rest of Australia in reading for the National Simultaneous Story Time event.

They were then involved in art and craft activities linked to the story and even watched a version of the book being translated to Auslan.

The children were also impressed with the beautiful decal stickers on the floors and walls.
