Celebrating Educators’ Day in the most beautiful way!

Our educators are truly the heart of early childhood education — nurturing, guiding, inspiring and making a difference in little lives every single day.

We feel so grateful for our beautiful Narre Warren families who have made this day extra special with heartfelt handwritten notes, thoughtful treats and the sweetest hand-painted cards from the children. 

Every little gesture, kind word and moment of appreciation means so much to our educators and reminds us just how special our community is.

Happy Educators’ Day to our incredible team! ❤️

🐞🌿 Mini Beasts Incursion at Astra 🦋✨

At Astra, we welcomed Labcoat Learning for a special Mini Beasts Incursion, inviting children to explore the fascinating world of insects and bugs through a hands-on experience.

Guided by their curiosity, the children observed closely, asked questions, shared ideas and developed new understandings about the natural world. 🔎🐛

A beautiful example of how curiosity, wonder and hands-on experiences inspire meaningful learning. 💚

📚✨ Book Week: Bringing Our Community Together ✨📚

What a beautiful week celebrating the joy of stories and reading! ❤️ From music and reading experiences to families sharing their child’s favourite books, it was wonderful seeing our community come together.

We loved exploring the many ways stories can be told — through books, music, movement, imagination and theatre. 🎭📖

A beautiful celebration of connection, creativity and a love of stories! 💛

🫖🎩✨ A little magic in Wonderland! 🐰📚

For Book Week, Maggie’s Senior Toddler Room was transformed into a magical Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, inviting children to explore Alice in Wonderland through imaginative and dramatic play.

Our thoughtfully prepared environment became the third teacher, encouraging curiosity, creativity and wonder. The children extended their experience outdoors, exploring how to make and share tea, before enjoying a special morning tea together. 🌸🫖

A beautiful experience where children, environment and imagination came together to bring Wonderland to life. ✨

Today, our Astra leadership team came together for a meaningful day of connection, reflection and shared learning. 💛

These moments give us the opportunity to think deeply together...sharing perspectives, challenging our thinking and strengthening the vision that connects us across Astra.

We were incredibly grateful to be joined by Ruth from REAIE (Reggio Emilia Australia Information Exchange), who supported us in exploring the important role we hold as early childhood professionals, not only as educators and leaders, but as advocates for children, their rights, their safety and the value of early childhood education...Together we reflected on our current projects, child safety and wellbeing, quality practice, Assessment & Rating, community connections and the possibilities still ahead of us.

Because strong services begin with leaders who are willing to listen, reflect, question and grow together.

A beautiful day of creativity, connection & family fun!

For children, art is more than just creating something beautiful — it’s a way to explore, express, experiment and make sense of the world around them. 💛

Inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, where children are encouraged to express themselves through their “hundred languages,” we wanted to give families a chance to experience the world of art together.

From clay 🏺 and painting 🎨 to crafts ✂️ and sensory playdough 🌈, families explored different materials, created freely and simply enjoyed the process.

It was so special to see families creating side by side, getting messy, sharing ideas and having fun together. 👐✨

This workshop was our little invitation for families to dive into the world of art — to slow down, get curious and discover the joy of creating together. 💛

Thank you to all the beautiful families who could join us!!

🌍 Exploring the Four Elements of Nature: Earth, Fire, Water & Air and how they shape the world!

Our 4 year old Rosella Kinder children have begun exploring the four elements of nature—Earth, Fire, Water, and Air. To start their journey, they discovered the fascinating world of volcanoes! 🌋

After watching an educational video about how volcanoes erupt, the children brought their learning to life by creating their own volcanic eruptions using baking soda, vinegar, and food colouring. This fun, hands-on science experience encouraged curiosity, observation, and a deeper understanding of the natural world.

Language of Food – Exploring the Roots of Vegetables 🌱💚

As part of this month's Language of Food program, the children have been exploring where our food comes from and developing a deeper understanding of the foods we eat every day.

We focused on the roots of vegetables, discovering how plants grow and develop. The children enjoyed drawing the life cycle of different vegetables while engaging in conversations about the different types of roots and the important role they play in helping plants grow.

This hands-on learning experience encouraged curiosity, scientific thinking, and a greater appreciation for the wonderful world of food that surrounds us. It was a meaningful opportunity to connect learning with nature and healthy eating.

❄️ Snowflake Art ❄️

Our children explored sensory art as they painted their very own snowflakes. Through this creative experience, they engaged in meaningful conversations about what winter looks like, sharing their ideas and observations while extending their inquiry project.

This hands-on activity encouraged creativity, sensory exploration, language development, and curiosity as the children expressed their understanding of the changing seasons.

🌳🌿 National Tree Day 🌿🌳

Today, our children celebrated National Tree Day by planting native plants and learning how to care for our environment. They eagerly explored the process of digging, planting, and watering, while developing an appreciation for the natural world around them.

We also enjoyed meaningful conversations about what National Tree Day means to each of us, encouraging the children to share their ideas about caring for nature and protecting our planet. 💚
