25.01.2022 Hi Everyone, We had our first Zoom meet today, and it was so lovely to see the children's happy faces For those not able to join in, we would love to invite you to send to Mandy Rainbow's email some pictures (drawn or photographic) of what you've been up to; we hope to make books of some of your pictures to share! How about watching the virtual zoo tour https://www.facebook.com/watch/ then draw your favourite animal and send it in?... Can't wait to see your pictures

24.01.2022 As we move into Stage 4 of restrictions in response to the Coronavirus crisis, we know that you will have lots of questions about kindergarten. We are waiting for confirmation from the State Government regarding the definition of both "permitted workers" and "vulnerable families". It is looking like we will only be open to families where both parents are required to attend their essential service's work. Below is a letter which you should have received, or will soon receive f...rom Council: Dear Families, Subject: Knox City Council’s Early Years Services (Childcare and Kindergarten) Stage 4 Restrictions By now you will be aware that the Premier of Victoria has declared a State of Disaster and announced Stage 4 restrictions for metropolitan Melbourne. These restrictions will be in place for a minimum of six weeks, until at least 13 September. Council takes its responsibility to our community very seriously and continues to follow the advice and guidance of the Victorian Government and relevant authorities. The Stage 4 restrictions will have a significant impact on the delivery of both kindergarten and childcare services delivered by Council. We appreciate that families will need information regarding these services as quickly as possible. We are currently working to provide an update by Tuesday afternoon, once we can consider what impact this will have for children, families and our staff over the next six weeks. We appreciate your patience and support as we work to keep you informed during a very uncertain time and concentrated timeframe. If you have any questions regarding this letter please contact Janine Brown, Manager Family and Children’s Services at [email protected] Please rest assured that as soon as we know anything further, we will communicate with you. Stay safe and well, and keep your precious children close

24.01.2022 We are excited to let you all know that Mandy Rainbow and Mandy Purple will be staying at Scoresby West in 2021 We are both looking forward to another wonderful year here.

23.01.2022 This is our favourite "rule" when using the Teaching Pyramid with the children. Today, our young friend Wil used his kind words to ask for more water, saying: "It's nice to use kind words and gentle touches. If everyone did that, no-one would fight; we wouldn't even need the army. Imagine if the whole world was gentle, then the whole entire world would be peaceful" Not long 5 years old and he has worked out world peace

23.01.2022 Today with the Sapphires Group we celebrated National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander CHILDREN'S DAY

14.01.2022 Hello families Here we are again unfortunately... BUT... The advice from the Department of Education is as follows:... Dear early childhood education and care services, New restrictions metropolitan Melbourne and Mitchell Shire The new restrictions for metropolitan Melbourne and Mitchell Shire means people living in these areas can only leave their homes for the following reasons: shopping for essential food and supplies care and caregiving exercise study or work - if it can't be done from home. Early childhood education and care including sessional kindergarten The current advice from Victoria’s Chief Health Officer and the Australian Health Protection Principal Committee (AHPPC) is that Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) services can continue to operate, with appropriate risk-mitigation measures in place (unless instructed by the Department of Health and Human Services to close). This means that ECEC services can continue to operate. This includes sessional kindergarten, which can return to on-site learning at the start of Term 3 on Monday 13 July. Regardless of where families live, their child can continue to attend ECEC, including kindergarten. Information about schools For all schools in metropolitan Melbourne and Mitchell Shire, there will be five pupil-free days from Monday 13 to Friday 17 July for all students, except for the following: Students enrolled in Years 11 and 12 Students in Year 10 enrolled in a VCE study, for VCE lessons Students enrolled in specialist schools These students will all attend on-site from Monday 13 July. During this time, schools will provide a program of care and supervision for those students whose parents/carers cannot work from home and for vulnerable students. The new arrangements will limit a significant number of people moving about these communities, while we give our health experts additional time to assess the local situation. Take care everyone, and please let us know if you're keeping your child at home as a precaution and would like any support
