The Woods Early Education Centre

Have you heard about our Veggie Fun Program? Centres are entering the 7th month of our Veggie Fun Program for 2026. Throughout the month, our Kindy children will discover how sprouts grow from tiny seeds, learn about the different varieties and enjoy hands-on experiences of sprouting their very own Rye seeds! Packed with nutrients and full of flavour, sprouts are a wonderful way to introduce children to growing and exploring fresh foods. By learning, growing and cooking together, children develop a greater connection to ingredients and a wider appreciation for seasonal produce.

🍝 Healthy Cooking Company – SECOND SHIPMENT OF ITALIAN PASTA!🇮🇹✨

We’re excited to share that QCCS has been featured in The Sector, highlighting the arrival of our second shipment of Italian Organic Wholemeal Pasta and our ongoing commitment to providing nutritious, wholesome meals for children across our services.

At QCCS, mealtimes are about so much more than food. They’re an opportunity for children to explore new flavours, enjoy nutritious ingredients and develop positive eating habits that can last a lifetime.

We’re incredibly proud to see our commitment to quality children’s nutrition recognised and shared with the wider early childhood community.

Today was a very special day at Creek Kindy! 🌿💚

We were delighted to welcome Jonty Bush - Member for Cooper , along with Sam, to The Woods to experience Creek Kindy with our children and educators.

Creek Kindy is such a special part of our program, giving children the freedom to explore, discover, take safe risks, build confidence and develop a deep connection with nature. 🌱🪵🐞
It was wonderful to share our vision for nature-based learning and showcase the incredible learning that happens when children are given the time, space and freedom to connect with their natural environment.

A huge thank you to Jonty and Sam for joining us, spending time with the children, asking questions and taking a genuine interest in what we do here at The Woods. 💚

We are incredibly proud of our Creek Kindy program and the passionate educators who make these experiences possible every day.
Little feet, big adventures and a lifelong connection with nature. 🌿✨
