23.01.2022 In the kangaroos we have been researching our new project " Farm to Fork ". Learning about where the food we eat comes from and how its made. To begin our investigation we started off with making our own butter. Milking our room made cow to gather milk and cream then using jars to shake shake shake and create butter. Once the butter was made we used the remaining liquid to create pancakes to enjoy with our yummy butter.

22.01.2022 This page has some great ideas for children who have different sensory needs. Some of these ideas are great for all children to use in a sensory tub.

22.01.2022 Throughout this week at little wallabies we have been exploring Christmas and engaging in a variety of activities. The Joeys have been engaging their senses as they explore and experiment with different christmas decorations. Including our bauble basket and christmas decorations painting. The wallabies have been learning about different christmas items starting off with christmas crackers. To began their investigating they stared with the book "Slinky Malinki's Christmas Crac...kers" by Lynley Dodd. Exploring what they are, how at use them and getting to try one. The kangaroos have been engaging their skills & processes of problem solving and experimentation with the tessellating shape blocks. Using different christmas themed pattern boards we were able to make many christmas shapes including christmas trees, wreaths and snow men. What's your favourite part of christmas?

22.01.2022 The Wallabies are celebrating one of their peers birthdays by making some cup cakes. The children all helped to add the different ingredients and counted how many cupcakes they were making when the mixture was poured into the tin.

20.01.2022 Today in the Wallabies Room they have been in a creative mood. This morning the children were offered candles and water colour paint so they could explore cause and effect as they noticed the paint wouldnt go over where they had drawn with the candles. Then this afternoon they used the sitters to create some fantastic pieces of art.

20.01.2022 The attachment theory is important when looking at behaviour management

16.01.2022 Today is Crazy Hair Day! Here is some of our crazy and colourful hair styles

14.01.2022 Today the Kangaroos have been working on their mathamatic skills. Both groups did different versions of number bingo. The older children had to count the number of an object on a card held by Miss Suzanne and then working in pairs match it to their bingo sheets. The younger children picked a card with different numbered dots on it and used the transport counters to put the same amount of counters as dots onto the cards using tongs to help develop their fine motor skills.

12.01.2022 Today the Joeys have been busy doing some sensory paintings. First we used shaving cream and food dye to create some colourful paintings. The children used a spoon and their hands to mix all the colours together. Next we put blobs of paint on some paper in a tray and put some marbles on top. As the paint went into the tray the children named the different colours, red blue and yellow. The children then shook the tray and watches as the marbles made patterns in the paint.

12.01.2022 We are so lucky to have such a large space that is nice and shady in summer and warm in winter.

11.01.2022 We are excited to let all our families know that we are having a trial session of yoga for children. We have invited Connect Kids Yoga to come and provide a session for our 2-5 year olds on Wednesday the 9th of November.

11.01.2022 Today the Kangaroos followed up on an interest the children have been showing in how volcanoes are made after reading a book about the world. Miss Alison first asked the children to make a big hill to be the volcano. The children then watched as the vinegar and bi-carb soda were mixed together to make the lava!

11.01.2022 The Joeys have their own safe space to explore their outdoors

11.01.2022 Such an inspirational read

10.01.2022 I would love to see something like this in our garden or a mural where all children have contributed to in the hallway.

09.01.2022 Dont forget it is Loud Shirt Day tomorrow. Please bring your children dressed in their brightest shirts and help us fundraise for the Shepherd Centre who do a great job helping deaf children.

09.01.2022 All babies and young children should be cuddled when the want to be or need to be. We need to make sure we are creating a secure base for the children to be able to confidently explore their environments.

08.01.2022 If you have trouble with drop offs here are a few tips to help make drop offs a little easier

07.01.2022 I would love to see more loose parts play going on both indoors and outdoors. The children have been enjoying having the wooden reels in the sandpit. What else could we add to extend on the truck play?

07.01.2022 Anna and Claire this would be great for school readiness

04.01.2022 I would love to create some of these for the rooms

03.01.2022 Its important for the children to know you are there to help meet their needs.

03.01.2022 Today the Wallabies started the Literacy Program - Ants in the Apple. This program helps the children to learn the different sounds of the letters of the alphabet in a fun way using different characters for each of the different letters. This week it is all about A - Ants in the apple To go along with this the children talked about the different items that start with the letter A they came up with - Ayden, Apple, Archer and Ants. The children then followed this with an apple craft activity, Apple Stamping!

03.01.2022 I LOVE Dr Seuss
