25.01.2022 Goodbyes are never easy and this one is especially difficult. Working at Yarram Early Learning for the last 5 years has been such special experience. What a privilege it has been to teach so many children from the Yarram community and meet so many wonderful families. It is such a special journey to take with the children, as they embark on their first chapter of their learning. I will miss each and every one of you and wish you all well in the future. Jo

21.01.2022 Your feedback is valuable to us. In a constant effort to offer a high-quality experience to our families and children, we ask that you complete the below survey. https://yarramelc.com.au/feedback-survey/

21.01.2022 It gives me enormous pleasure to announce that Yarram Early Learning has been assessed recently and today we have been awarded as being exceeding the National Quality Standards. Education and care services across Australia are assessed and rated by their state and territory regulatory authority. All the approved services are assessed against the seven quality areas of the National Quality Standard and given an overall rating. ... Today we have received an exceeding rating in not 1 but 4 Quality Areas and an overall rating of exceeding! This is amazing and validates all the hard work that our entire team has put in this year. Facing an unprecedented pandemic in the midst of it too, I'm so proud to get an overall rating exceeding. Thank you to the amazing staff, families and community for supporting me through change and critical feedback and believing in me and what I could bring to the service. It made everything much easier Now I really can relax a bit Cathy Gay Director

19.01.2022 OWNER FOUND Thanks for the visit Marshall We have had a Paw Patrol toy have a sleep over in the office last night. If you are missing a toy please speak to the office

19.01.2022 COVID has brought with it so many challenges and hurdles. One of them has been helping families feel connected to our centre when they have been unable to enter... the building for so many months. To help bridge this gap we have been posting more pictures and communication to families via Xplor than ever before. Did you know that you can respond to the educators/admin posts and this notification goes directly to them! Your welcome at any time to use this function to give feedback or share information about your child. We’re hoping that this goes a little way in making our families feel connected. See more

19.01.2022 We would like to say a huge congratulations to Shantaz from our Bataluk room for finishing her Diploma in Early Childhood and Education in a very quick 12 month time. We are all very proud of you

17.01.2022 Professional development. This week we had Kirsty Liljegren, early childhood consultant, come to the centre to provide us with a PD focusing on Quality Area 1- Educational Program & Practice. Together we explored different ways to setup the learning environment to encourage different kinds of play. We discussed the many ways in which children learn and how we as educators can facilitate and nurture that learning. Our incredible team of educators are passionate about children’s learning and this was evident in how engaged they all were and the professional conversations that were sparked.

08.01.2022 We have already had some great feed back back from our survey. As it is anonymous we can not reply to you if you ask a question. We have had someone ask if the centre is organising for yearly photos this year.

05.01.2022 Today, the educators and children took part in an emergency lock down drill. As part of our Emergency Management, we are required to complete several different drills and scenarios throughout the year. The children in all rooms handled this situation extremely well and were calm and followed the educator’s instructions, flawlessly. Some of the children have been talking about the drill since it took place and may be wanting to share their experience with their families tonight.
