Friendships are important, even at sleeptime! 💤🌝

The CRCS Family will be taking an early mark tomorrow, 3rd December from 12PM, to celebrate the end of the year.

Our wonderful team have done an exceptional job supporting the community during some very challenging times this year, so we are very excited to take this opportunity to thank them for their amazing contributions, and celebrate this special time of the year together.🎄

Please be aware that all CRCS offices, early childhood centres, services and programs will be closed from 12:00 pm✨ Essential transport and support services will be providing limited services and contactable via the numbers on our website.

Thank you for understanding! ❤️ .

When it’s your ‘’best friend’s’’ birthday, a handmade card and a cuddle is important way to celebrate.❤️🎉

This little moment in time demonstrates how children explore volume from a young age.... fill up the cup, tip out the cup repeat...💙

Reading together provides opportunities for children to share their knowledge, thoughts and ideas as well as enhance their communication and social skills.📚📖😊

Did you know that October is Down Syndrome Awareness month? The children at BRECC do!

One of the ways the children furthered their knowledge was to participate in the national campaign .

The reason for the number21, is that people with down syndrome have an extra chromosome 21 and it is sometimes called trisomy 21.

The children at BRECC drew 21 steps in chalk and spent the week taking 21 steps, engaging in conversations and developing their knowledge further.
