To everyone who brought tickets in Jacks Raffle we would like to say a big thankyou, we raised $1900. The live feed has been removed due to a hiccup with the prizes and trying sort the prizes.. If you were watching the live feed and won a 2 for 1 coffee voucher, these have now been voided due to a circumstance beyond my control. These were 'extra prizes' and does not effect the original prize pull. Thanks for your understanding.

This evening our 1912 Families and Educators celebrated our end of year party..

With a BBQ dinner, a visit from Santa and Mrs Claus in the fire truck, face painting, tattoos and lots of art and craft experiences for children to participate in you couldn't ask for a better night.

Thankyou to fairy tales and pirate sails for face painting for us once again.

Last night, the 1912 team gathered for dinner at Prem’s to commemorate a special occasion: the remarkable achievement of Khalia, who has just completed her Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education! 👩‍🎓

We are incredibly fortunate to have Khalia as part of our team at 1912, where she works as one of our dedicated early childhood teachers. Her passion for the sector is nothing short of inspiring, as she consistently crafts beautiful and enriching environments that nurture the growth and development of all children and their families. ❤️

We would like to extend our heartfelt congratulations to Khalia on her graduation. The determination she has shown in balancing her studies while raising her lovely daughter is truly commendable. Khalia has received her final transcript, with the graduation ceremony scheduled for the 16th of December. Once again, well done, Khalia! Your hard work and dedication have truly paid off! 💗💗

At 1912 we shared a story together to celebrate National Simultaneous Story time, held by the Australian Library and Information Association, with a picture book selected by an Australian author and illustrator, all read at the same day and time around the Country.

The picture book selected is Bowerbird blue, written and illustrated by Aura Parker.

Across the day we explored the colour blue, sensory bases, art creations and sustainability practices by engaging in a range of activities throughout the environment.

🦋🦋🦋Today was the day, the chrysalis had turned translucent and throughout the day three butterflies emerged. 🦋🦋🦋

🐛🐛🐛Life cycles 🦋🦋🦋
Within the preschool room we have been learning about living things within our environment. This started in spring when we started to see bugs and flowers grow around us, we learnt about the life cycles and built bug hotels, adding them to our environment to watch daily.
We have recently added caterpillars to our environment to watch and observe the full life cycle. Our caterpillars are now in their cocoon’s, we are waiting patiently for the emergent of butterflies.
