25.01.2022 Last Forest school for the year with our Forest school leaders , but surely we will be out and about in the coming months. As that's what we love and enjoy, and what gives us so much in return. We loved the fire and roasted muffins , hot chocolate and the great atmosphere there, we did not miss the opportunity to help with setting it all up, collecting fire wood, and making ourselves comfy around the fire. Oh and caught more tadpoles, as the ones we raised became and off they went their way

25.01.2022 Happy Birthday to our Bindi Boo. WOW already 4. I don't know how did that happen . Such an amazing, super fun and clever kiddo you are . We always love spending the days with you here . Hope you liked the jellyfish cake we made you and enjoying your birthday week

23.01.2022 Beach morning . We are loving it. With the low tide especially, there was so much to see, to find and explore. The hermit crabs were the winners today. The hermit crab is a type of crab that does not have a hard shell. They use old shells for protection. When the hermit crab grows in size, it finds a larger shell. Oh so many interesting facts for us to search and learn

22.01.2022 ARE U OK The second Thursday of September is R U OK? Day a day dedicated to inspiring and empowering everyone to meaningfully connect with people around them by asking the simple question Are you OK? Now could be a great time to ask your child Are you OK?" and to support them in the event that they are struggling.

21.01.2022 Another Forest school with the kiddies. What a great morning we all had. We found many interesting bugs, butterflies, birdies, tadpoles, fishies, sticks and seeds and who knows what. Digging in mud and climbing trees, getting the firewood ready . We enjoyed hot chocolate and English muffinsroasted in the fire. Genny read us a story too. We did not want to go home after all this. What can be better than this

20.01.2022 Lovely start of the week at this awesome duck park. We fed the ducks and watched them swimming in the pond . There is so many of them. Great walk around, lots to see and collect . We enjoyed all a nice picnic too. Perfect weather and very enjoyable morning.

19.01.2022 Not that we might the rain, the opposite, good for all the new seedlings we put in the garden . We do lots of art and craft . Pretend play and more creative activities while there is pouring rain . ah and don't forget the books . The clay, we played today with, was great with all the cones and gum nuts, twigs and seeds... , The creations were amazing

18.01.2022 To finish off the school holidays we had a nice morning at bowling. Building self confidence, patience , turn taking , sportsmanship , hand eye coordination and balance , counting and simple math .

18.01.2022 We met our friends at the Nature Playground, enjoyed a nice picnic morning tea there together and off we went for an adventure around the lake. We brought crayons and paper with us, to do leaf rubbing and it came out so well. Children really enjoyed watching on the lake with the binoculars, there was a bush turkey, fish, Lillies and other birds to watch too.

17.01.2022 With the start of a new month, we decided to get our Nature passports out again and enjoy the fun nature play missions. To start our outdoor play, and learning, we just made our binoculars to take them out exploring. Children are excited to fill the pages in the passport. We will keep you posted, how are we doing

15.01.2022 What a week at Punka's as the kiddies say . We welcomed Maxie, who started this week. He just turned 3 the day before he came to us Happy Birthday Maxie. We had a busy week. There was a book week dress up, working on some masks and outfits. Playing office, making a dinosaur's caves, cooking, gardening and lots of 'loose parts' play. . We had a great visit from the Cairns museum, where we talked and learnt about how things looked in the olden days...

15.01.2022 We had a lovely playsession at the Family Day Care office. Special visitors came from the Bat society to talk to us about how important bats are for us and our environment. How very interesting, I will make sure to share some facts we learnt with you . Also some nice time spent gardening there and cool activities for the children

15.01.2022 This morning we enjoyed the visit to the Dome. It's a great environment whilst parrots, cockatoos and other birds native to the Wet Tropics region fly freely around.we saw crocodiles, lizards, koalas and more native animals . Children were interested to see the snakes and the skins they shed. It was a lovely morning

07.01.2022 One of our favorite spot this morning. We enjoyed making all the sand creations and watching the seagulls around the beach . Did you know that: Sea gulls like freshwater, but they'll drink sea water? Sea gulls make nests simply by hollowing out a soft spot in the sand. ...? And when their chicks are born, one parent stays with them all the time. We had a lovely morning.

04.01.2022 We had so much fun catching some tadpoles in the creek yesterday, children would not stop talking about that . We are now watching them to grow. We created an observation tank and are going to raise them. It is fun and engaging way for kids to learn about lifecycle of a frog.

02.01.2022 'Daddies don't just love their children every now and then, it's a love without end.' Happy Father's Day

01.01.2022 What a great start of the week . We enjoyed our little adventure in the bush and around the creek this morning. Children loved the little walking tracks around there. Again, tadpoles were the thing, we brought another 2 home and some little fishies too . Children are so excited. Not planned, but also one little caterpillar found a way to come with us too, so we are now looking after them all . How great and exciting
