Today, we had the absolute pleasure of celebrating two of our wonderful Educators and their incredible milestones with QCCS! 💚

🌟 Miss Michelle, one of our amazing Early Childhood Teachers, is celebrating an incredible 10 years with QCCS.

🌟 Miss Gemma, one of our wonderful Diploma-qualified Float Educator, has reached an outstanding 15 years with QCCS!

And how special is this little flashback of Miss Michelle and Miss Gemma from six years ago. 🥰 It’s wonderful to look back on the memories, friendships and experiences shared along the way.

We are incredibly proud and grateful for the dedication, passion and care these two wonderful Educators have shown to our children, families and team throughout the years.

10 years + 15 years = 25 incredible years of making a difference!💚👏

Congratulations, Miss Michelle and Miss Gemma! What an amazing achievement and milestone to celebrate.🎉✨

🍝 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.

Another fantastic opportunity to showcase the QCCS difference!💚

Second helping of Italy lands on Queensland childcare menus Queensland Children are saying buon appetito once again, with Queensland Childcare Services (QCCS) and the Healthy Cooking Company (HCC) welcoming a second shipment of organic wholemeal pasta from Italy.

Our children were so excited to discover a witchetty grub near the mud kitchen, quickly naming him Bumpy, while also observing Larry the lizard, another fascinating discovery. Together, the children shared their ideas, drew pictures and researched these creatures, learning about nature, First Nations knowledge and our connection to the natural environment. #

Science Week Fun in Kindergarten 2!

The children in Kindergarten 2 at Prince Charles Early Education Centre have been excited to kick off Science Week with a week full of hands-on experiments and discovery.

Throughout the week, the children explored a range of exciting science experiences, including creating a volcano eruption, investigating how a balloon rocket works, and taking part in a rocket launch experiment using bicarbonate soda and vinegar.
The children were actively involved in making predictions, observing what happened, asking questions, and sharing their ideas with their friends and educators. There were plenty of smiles, excitement, and even a few experiments that did not go quite as planned—which gave the children an opportunity to think about why and try again.

All of the children who participated had a wonderful time while developing their curiosity, problem-solving skills, teamwork, and understanding of cause and effect through fun, hands-on learning.
It has been a fantastic start to Science Week, and we are so proud of our young scientists for their enthusiasm and eagerness to explore how things work.

How lucky are we to have our wonderful Grandfriends visit our children every Thursday! From reading stories and sharing special conversations, to drawing, colouring, painting and, of course, those extra special cuddles, our children always look forward to their weekly visits. 💕👵🏼👴🏼
