20.01.2022 Last year we collected lids for Lids4Kids and received so many, with the leftover lids the past few weeks weeks we have been underway on this Surfboard Mural. On International Ocean Day we hung our Mural up on our Verandah for all to see as they enter the centre. To relevant the mural to our centre we got talking with the children about our community, what they do and see in it. -The Butterfly: when we started this project it was during the butterfly migration, so many chil...dren had been seeing Butterflies regularly and talking about it. We also always have butterflies flying around our Jasmine vines and caterpillars on our Orange tree in our yard. -The ocean: Our centre is across the road from the Tallebudgera Creek, which Borobi Room 1 and 2 cross on Walkabouts, the Pre Prep room also visits Tallebudgera beach on Beach Kinder and as a community we are always taking about the ocean and caring for it. -The Wattle Tree: on Walkabouts there are many Wattle Tree’s we pass, we always talked about Native Australian Plants that we see. . . . #internationaloceanday #reducereuserecycle #cleanair #cleanoceans #cleanliving #teachingchildren #teachingchildrenfortheirfuture #respect #respectnature #childcare #childcareprovider #qldkids #goldcoastkids #childrenarethefuture @ Playschool Kindergarten See more

19.01.2022 Happy Borobi day! Today we celebrated Borobi and officially changed the name of our KINDY 1 and 2 room to the BOROBI ROOM. By using the word Borobi we are using the Yugambeh language out of respect for the traditional land owners Playschool Kindergarten is on. We encourage all to come together for an equitable and reconciled nation. #borobiday20 @acaqld #acaqld @borobijingeri @yugambeh_museum #eylf #childcare #goldcoastchildren #childcareprovider

We roasted marshmallows (Witchetty Grubs) and had a Yarn. It is important to embed cultural perspectives into Early Years Programs for children to become culturally competent in their later years. . . . #culturematters #alwayswasalwayswillbe #diversity #diversityandinclusion #diversitymatters #inclusivity #inclusive #inclusionmatterstoeveryone #inclusionmatters #respect #respectdiversity #respectfulinteraction #childcare #goldcoastkids #childcareprovider #childcareprofessional #childcarecenter #teachersofinstagram #inclusiveeducation @ Playschool Kindergarten

Our sunflower seedlings are starting to sprout, our worm farm is producing the best organic fertiliser thanks to our food scraps from all 3 rooms, we use recycled goods for craft and loose end play and we care for our creatures from small to big. In our daily routine we constantly imbed into the children practices to get them thinking and doing the most to keep... our world clean and healthy! We are so lucky to have this as our backyard let’s keep it this way! . . . . . #earth #earthday #earthdayeveryday #reducereuserecycle #cleanbeauty #cleanair #cleanoceans #cleanliving #teachingchildren #teachingchildrenfortheirfuture #respect #respectnature #earthday2020 See more

11.01.2022 Thank you for all participating in Pirate Week. Over the week the children have been on treasure hunts followings maps, compass' and clues to find the treasure. They have loved being involved in imaginative play in the pirate world outside, testing their gross motor on the 'walk the plank' and all the other exciting and engaging experiences they have been exposed to following in with the National Quality Guidelines and Early Years Learning Framework. This week has been such a... success and we have seen some great learning, play and teaching opportunities so we have decided to make this a yearly event, we also believe the fundraiser Talk like a Pirate Day is such an important foundation to help children with cancer.

11.01.2022 Gabbie Stroud presented at the Melbourne Conference Educators of Playschool Kindergarten attended back in February. Here she gives sound advise to especially parents of school aged children. We too believe that it is at this time that your connections with your children in your homes that will have the greatest influence as to how ready they are to learn in any environments. "Parents relax and take a breath", what matters right now is how you are dealing and coping with this change.
