🖤💛❤️ Reconciliation Week 2026 ❤️💛🖤

Our children worked together to create a Sea of Hands display at the front of our preschool, creating a beautiful symbol of unity, respect, and belonging. Through this experience the children explored the importance of respect, connection to Country, and celebrating the world's oldest continuing cultures. Each hand is a reminder that we all have a role to play in fostering understanding, inclusion, and respect.

Today our team spent the day on the beautiful Central Coast, taking part in a mystery picnic! 🌊☀️

A big thank you to our amazing team for making the day so much fun! 💚

⚽️🏀🏈 Munch & Move Library ⚽🏀🎾
Families are encouraged to borrow a tub full of fun sports equipment to take home over the weekend! Whether it’s a trip to your local park, a game in the backyard, or some active fun indoors, it’s a great way for families to spend quality time together while getting active. 🌳☀️
Our Munch & Move Library aims to encourage children and families to get up, get moving, and most importantly have fun! 💪😊

A big thank you to all of our wonderful Mums & Mother figures who attended our Mother’s Day Afternoon Tea last Friday.
It was so lovely to share the afternoon with you and celebrate all things MUM! We hope everyone had a beautiful Mother’s Day filled with lots of LOVE! 💗💐

As part of our Munch & Move Program we will be taking part of the “Offline Adventure”.
Over the next 2-weeks, we are choosing more screen-free moments. We know that screens are a part of our everyday lives. This adventure is an opportunity to have fun away from screens. Each day, we'll share a family-friendly activity to try, and
we'll also take on an activity at our service.

Monthly staff meeting 🌱

Tonight’s focus was on critical reflection, as a group we reviewed our program and daily practices . We explored the benefits of an indoor/outdoor approach embedded across the centre, supporting children to freely choose their play spaces and follow their interests.

These reflective conversations help us to grow as educators and ensure we are providing meaningful, responsive environments for all children.

Wishing all our families a very happy and safe Easter!
🐣 🐰 🍫 💛💜
Just a reminder we are CLOSED Friday 3rd & Monday 6th of April.

Last Tuesday, our children had a wonderful time celebrating St Patrick’s Day! ☘️🇮🇪
The day was filled with fun, laughter, and lots of green as we explored Irish culture through creative activities, music, and play.
