13.01.2022 To all our lovely MDCCC Families Following advice from RFS NSW, and information from Department of Education NSW , and after conducting a risk assessment based on this information a decision has been made to CLOSE Moruya Drive CCC on Tuesday 12th November 2019. This decision has been made taking into consideration the expected conditions & the current catastrophic warnings in place as well as the health and safety of children, families and staff. We will not be charging f...ees on this day. We appreciate that this will mean families will have to make alternate arrangements however I feel it is better to close than require an evacuation. Safety is our PRIORITY. We will operate as normal Wednesday unless otherwise notified Please stay safe during this unprecedented crisis.

05.01.2022 This weeks focus has been science as we celebrate Science Week. Educators have provided experiences that encourage our Preschoolers to investigate, observe, hypothesise and investigate throughout play and intentional teaching moments. As the children expand on their thinking they create their own spontaneous learning experiences, collaborating as they create volacanoes and share their enjoyment as they observe theexplosion created using chemical reaction. Here is a quick snippet of our scientific exploration.

05.01.2022 Thought this was a great chart!!
