14.01.2022 This is a great discussion on the benefits of investing in early childhood education, for every dollar invested, the community receives two dollars value.

14.01.2022 Thank you Senior Constable Debbie Wilson for teaching us what to do if we feel unsafe. We practiced saying no, go and tell.

13.01.2022 Today we discussed R U OK? Day with the children. The Be You program, which is a national initiative for educators to use to promote positive mental health in children, is about developing and supporting the social and emotional well being of all children. We read the book, Rubys Worry which tells the story of a little girl who discovers that she has a worry. She finds out, by meeting another little boy who has a worry, that the more she talks about her worry, the smaller it gets. These are positive strategies for children to learn in their relationships and emotional connections with others.

13.01.2022 Thank you Col Hardy and Taronga Zoo for a giving us a hands on experience with some our native animals and sharing beautiful songs and music with us this week. What a wonderful experience for our children to learn from and enjoy.

09.01.2022 When you are angry or distressed your brain is like a jar filled with glitter. Everything spinning and no time to think. Let all the sparkles fall to the bottom of the jar... Find a place to sit. Relax. Just Breathe.

08.01.2022 Hello everyone. A clinical psychology registrar is conducting some really important research on how early child care arrangements influence young children. Understanding this further will help psychologists, teachers, and parents support their unique children through one of the most critical times of their life. She needs over 80 more people before the end of this week to complete this 20 min online survey. We are trying to help her get over the line. We know your time is pr...ecious but we would appreciate, if you have a child going into kindergarten this year, that you may lend her a hand. Not to mention, you can win one of 10 $100 Coles/Myer gift card for participating! The link to her study is http://bit.ly/childrenseccas Thank you! If you have any questions please contact her on [email protected] or on her page @utsresearchchildrenseccas See more

National Sorry Day is followed by Reconciliation Week which is May 27 to June 3 every year.

05.01.2022 We are looking forward to Ms Eleni Petinos MP visiting our preschool tomorrow to discuss why #EarlyLearningMatters

04.01.2022 Thank you Eleni Petinos MP for visiting us for #EarlyLearningMatters week and playing with our children today. It is so important that our politicians recognise the value of high quality early learning and the benefits it provides for our community.

04.01.2022 Research shows quality preschool can deliver $2 of returns to the economy for every $1 invested. Children who received quality early childhood education and care are also up to eight months ahead in learning, with the benefits still evident in adolescence.

02.01.2022 Grandparents are so important in the lives of children and it was wonderful to have so many of our grandparents visit preschool this week to enjoy playing, reading, talking, painting and so much more with their grandchildren this week.

02.01.2022 Thank you to our generous families who have donated fabric for our Boomerang Bag project https://boomerangbags.org/ Chris Rendell has been teaching our children how to use a sewing machine and we have made 26 bags already which will reduce the use of plastic bags in our community.

01.01.2022 We are so very proud of Sharon Xabregas who won the Personal Story award at Shire Ability Film Festival tonight. We hope you can show your video to everyone at preschool so we can all watch you, Lila, her friends and Mrs Smith in your award winning film.
