🎨Mark Making 🎨

Through mark making experiences, children explore lines, shapes, patterns, and colour as they express their ideas, creativity, and developing understanding of the world around them.

These early marks are an important foundation for future writing, drawing, communication, and cognitive development, supporting children to build confidence, coordination, and self-expression through meaningful, hands-on play.

Little Possums Go Camping ⛺🔥

From setting up camp to sharing stories around the “campfire,” the Little Possums Camping Play Space encourages creativity, teamwork, problem-solving, and a sense of adventure as children immerse themselves in their camping journeys together.

Our doors are always open at Kids World Gilston 💙

We welcome families to visit, explore, and experience our warm and nurturing environment anytime throughout the day. We can’t wait to show you around! ✨

✨Play Spaces ✨

Our educators create thoughtfully designed learning environments that are dynamic, flexible, and responsive spaces, where children are empowered to explore, create, and lead their own learning.

Using open-ended materials such as loose parts, recycled resources, and wooden blocks, children are encouraged to adapt, combine, and use materials in imaginative ways that foster curiosity, problem-solving, and deep play-based learning.
