Protecting Our Children Together 💙 During Child Protection Week, we reflect on our shared commitment to creating environments where children feel safe, valued, and heard across all our services. This is reinforced through our NAPCAN Pledge; "Investing in ongoing staff training to build confidence in recognising, responding to, and preventing child protection concerns across all our services." 🫶 At SCECS Bass Hill, children crafted crowns and worry dolls to explore personal safety and identify the trusted adults in their lives. ✨

R U OK? Any Day 💛 At SCECS children understand that feelings matter.

By learning to recognise their own emotions and notice when a friend needs support, our young learners experience the value of empathy through their daily connections with each other.

Let's keep looking out for one another, big and small, today and every day. 💜

Growing our Garden🌱 At St Joseph's Camperdown, gardening is a wonderful way for children to connect with the natural world. From planting seeds and nurturing seedlings to observing insects and harvesting what they grow, children develop curiosity, responsibility and a deeper appreciation for nature. 🌿

Small Moments, Big Skills 🌟 Learning to take turns is an important part of preschool, helping children develop patience, cooperation, communication and respect for others. Through games, group activities and everyday play, children at St Therese Sadleir are learning that everyone gets a chance to participate, share ideas and have their moment to shine. 🌟

Curious Observation to Creative Discovery 🪲SCECS Panania children have been fascinated watching their spiny leaf insects grow and change, sparking plenty of curiosity, questions and conversations. Inspired by their observations, the children created dragonflies using pipe cleaners and buttons, with the wonderful support of our educators. 🦋🎨
