As educators, we know that some of the most powerful learning happens in everyday moments — and families play such an important role in this 🤩

One of the best ways to support your child’s learning at home is through responsive and meaningful conversations. Rather than saying, “Well done” or “I like your drawing”, try asking open-ended questions that invite your child to think, reflect and share their idea💡

Questions like:
👉 “Tell me about your drawing — what’s happening here?”
👉 “How did you decide to use those colours?”
👉 “What might happen next in your story?”

These types of questions encourage creativity, problem-solving and language development — and most importantly, they show your child that their thoughts and ideas matter 💗

It’s not about having all the answers — it’s about being curious together! ✨

◽️◻️📣 CENTRE UPDATE 📣◻️◽️
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
We wanted to share a centre update with our valued Goodstart Community regarding the temporary closure of our Goodstart Kingaroy Centre.

As many might already be aware, our centre has been impacted by a burst council water main and significant flooding, and our centre is currently closed. We will continue to provide regular updates as timelines are confirmed.

We know this disruption has been difficult for many families, and we are incredibly grateful for your patience, kindness and support during this time. It truly means so much to our team 💛

More than anything, we miss the laughter, smiles and energy that our beautiful children bring into the centre each day.

Be sure to keep a watch on our page for some live feeds and fun with our educators over the coming weeks 😍

We cannot wait to welcome everyone back, fill the rooms with learning and play again, and return to our normal routines together soon 💕

What a wonderful week our Toddler 1 children have are having! 🌟 From imaginative play and hands-on learning experiences to building beautiful friendships and meaningful connections - every day this week has been filled with fun, learning, and discovery 🩵

💕💕💕Happy Mother’s Day 💕💕💕

Wishing our special loved ones a magnificent Mother’s Day filled with smiles, hugs and happiness.

Thank you to everyone that joined us on Friday for our Mother’s Day pamper session! 💗 We enjoyed nail painting, flower making, special back massages, hand scrubs, and a photo booth! … But best off all, the children enjoyed showing all our special guests around their favourite places in the playground. What an incredible morning 😍🌸💕

🌱 From tiny seed to giant surprise! 🍐 After 5 months of patiently watching, watering and caring for our bottle gourd, the children were so proud and excited to finally pick it today! ✨ Now the fun continues as we wait for it to dry so we can give it another purpose and turn it into a bird feeder for our garden 🐦 🌿 A beautiful lesson in patience, growth and sustainability all in one! 💚
