25.01.2022 Today we had a visit from a bunny!! We all took turns patting the bunny and giving it some food. It felt very soft!! We loved watching it run around, exploring its new surroundings.

24.01.2022 Today we visited the Bibra Lake Adventure Park, we were lucky enough the rain stayed away. We enjoyed exploring the playground, flying high on the flying fox, climbing rocks, playing with the water station; getting the pump to work and making the water flow, climbing on the turtle, pretending to be dinosaurs in the bushes, climbed up high on the swaying rope bridge and spiralled down the dark slide, rope swings and trampolines and enjoying a picnic lunch

24.01.2022 Schoolies really enjoyed their excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park where we were lucky to interact with lots of different native animals. We saw parrots eating their veggies, a Tasmanian Devil eating raw meat and we fed animal pellets to wallabies, kangaroos and their joeys. We interacted with sheep, goats, ponies, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs and koalas, saw a variety of reptiles and birds, and we howled with the dingoes. Most of us had our photo taken with various native wildlife, including a wombat, koala, possum and birds.

24.01.2022 Hi Schoolies family these cute glasses were left in the bus, if your child is looking for them

24.01.2022 On Friday 8th January 2021, the Schoolies went to Swan Valley Cuddly Animal Farm in Henley Brook. The newborn animals were in the nursery, the children could go inside some of the cages to feed and pat the animals. We walked around the park and patted lots of animals, including ponies, goats, parrots and guinea pigs. There was an undercover bouncy castle, merry-go-round and a tractor train that all the children had numerous turns on. Overall the children had an amazing day and the centre purchased 10 baby chickens from the farm that we bought home on the bus with us.

23.01.2022 On Friday 2nd Oct we went to Rebound in Port Kennedy, where we enjoyed two hours of trampoline fun, played dodge ball and climbed the inflatable rock wall. After lunch we visited the Veterans Memorial Park, where we were able to climb on a real Army tank. We then played on the playground and watched Bonnie on her scooter at the skate park and bowl.

19.01.2022 Today the schoolies had a fun day out in Fremantle, we went to Cicerellos and got to touch different animals, including a shark.

We had some yummy fish and chips (majority of us had nuggets) and then we went for a run around at the park.

19.01.2022 Today the Schoolies went on another super fun excursion, this time it was to Jungle Gym in Willetton. The children were flying around the place on ropes and hoops, they flipped and twisted into foam pits. They all had so much fun and were super exhausted by the time they stopped being monkeys.

19.01.2022 On Wednesday 7th October the Schoolies went to Jungle Gym in Willetton. We had loads of fun climbing, swinging, jumping and tumbling on the gymnastic equipment with our friends. We ate our lunch and played at Bannister Creek Nature Park, before returning to the Centre.

17.01.2022 This morning we went back in time and experienced the life of the convict prisoners in Fremantle Prison. The children found this very interesting with lots of really good questions for our amazing tour guide Ian. We got to see where the trusted prisoners cooked in the kitchen, their not so nice cells and learnt how they escaped, along with lots of other interesting facts.

17.01.2022 Our first day of the holidays was spent at Shipwreck Park, playing on the equipment and digging in the sand. Then we enjoyed a picnic lunch before returning to the Centre.

17.01.2022 Thursday was our cooking day in the first week of the holidays in the Schoolies room. We made some yummy slices for afternoon tea, decorated biscuits and made a damper mix. In the afternoon we all worked together, collecting and breaking sticks to build our fire in the fire pit. We rolled the damper thinly to wrap around our sticks and toasted marshmallows. The children really enjoyed sitting around the fire chatting amongst themselves, they had a great in house day at the Centre.

16.01.2022 Today the children enjoyed having fun with their hair for Crazy Hair Day! Educators chose some crazy hairstyles for the children to rock out and then spray painted it different colours. Also to continue with the theme, our cook coloured our pasta for lunch multicoloured and made us a special treat of fairy bread for afternoon tea. All the children have had a Great day!

15.01.2022 This morning we had so much fun playing with the puppies from Shannons house!!! All the children loved giving the puppies pats and playing with them. The puppies all wanted to escape through the gate which we all thought was really funny!!!

15.01.2022 Due to the early closure of schools from the 3rd April, we are accepting School Age Childrens Bookings for families that require care. We are also able to assist your children with their home-schooling needs while they are in our care. Speak to us today to organise your childs care!

14.01.2022 Last week was National Recycling week and in the babies room we collected a lot of resources from the yard such as leaves flowers sticks and honky nuts and we used them in our arts and crafts for painting and gluing. We also recycled some plastic drink bottles and made sensory bottles out of them using rice, buttons, water, oil, food colouring ect so that the babies can see the different reactions and hear the different sounds each bottle made. Sensory bottles encourage the u...se of hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills, To begin to discover cause and effect and begin to track images and focus. Sensory bottles assist babies in imaginative play and also helps to self sooth and regulate those big emotions babies can experience.. The babies enjoyed these experiences that Id like to ask if you could please recycle some cereal boxes or milk/drink bottles and bring them in for us, would be greatly appreciated. Tash x See more

14.01.2022 Having such a fun day at Whiteman Edge park so much pretend play happening among all the children and playing games together. Proud of all the childrens behaviour and the older children helping out the younger children with the equipment and play.

13.01.2022 On Wednesday 30th Sept the Schoolies went to Landsdale Farm. We got to see and pat a menagerie of farm animals and enjoyed a short cart ride around the farmyard. Next we played on the playground and after lunch we explored the sensory garden searching for gnomes so we could complete the gnome quiz game.

13.01.2022 On Tuesday 6th October the Schoolies went to Inflatable World in Leeming. We bounced around on the big inflatable pillows, slid down the gigantic slides, climbed walls, challenged ourselves and faced our fears. It was very tiring for some, but we all had loads of fun. Afterwards we had our lunch in the park, and played on the playground, before returning to the Centre.

They watched the elephants paint and saw them waving at them with their trunks. We all enjoyed a nice picnic on the grass while the Ibis tried stealing our lunches, the children loved their day out.

10.01.2022 Today in the babies room we focussed on sensory play. The children got to explore cooked coloured noodles. At first they were unsure, but once the Educators (Tash & Lucy) showed them they were safe they had a ball. They ran them through their fingers and toes and then had fun putting them in each others hair. It was a fun and very messy activity which held their attention for nearly an hour. This activity engages babies senses and strengthens their fine motor skills.

08.01.2022 Rio Tinto Naturescape was such a great place to explore, the children engaged in lots of imaginary play in different areas of the park. We got to build our own homes out of branches working in groups to construct them, practiced our balancing skills crossing logs and used our climbing skills on the equipment and trees. The children were challenged by the ropes course. We also visited Saw Avenue park where we had our picnic lunch under the trees before exploring. We played Pac-Man in the metal maze and chased each other through the tunnels, before moving onto May Drive parkland for our final play where we pretended to be dragons and dinosaurs

08.01.2022 On Monday 5th October, Schoolies started the second week with a playground crawl along the Rockingham Coastal Drive. At the Memorial Park we were able to climb on a real gun turret and stand by a submarine fin to see how huge it was compared to us. We walked along the beach and collected some shells before continuing on our park crawl into Rockingham. We made chip butties for lunch, climbed some trees before returning to the Centre all tired.
