HAVEN Early Learning Rowville

🐥 Thank you to Henny Penny Hatching Melbourne South & Gippsland for bringing us some temporary fluffy friends.🐥🐤
The children in our 4-Year-Old kinder had a blast learning all about the life cycle of chickens and naming their newly hatched pals 🐣

Part 2 of Haven’s transformation! ✨

Now it’s the Forest Room and Field Room’s turn to shine!
After revealing the beautiful updates to our Sun Room and River Room, we’re so excited to finally share these refreshed spaces too.

With gorgeous new floors, fresh paint, and a warm new feel throughout, these rooms have completely come to life. The transformation has made Haven feel brighter, calmer, and even more welcoming for all the little moments shared here each day ✨

Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers, grandmothers, aunties, sisters, and special people in our lives at Haven. Thank you for all that you do. We hope your day is filled with love, joy, and appreciation. 🧡

Thank you to those who joined us on Thursday for afternoon tea. It was a pleasure to host you.

Our Sun Room has been buzzing with excitement as they begin to explore the wonderful world of Australian animals in Term 2! 🐨🦘

A perfect way to jump into this topic was a visit from Animals of Oz, where the children were fascinated to meet some incredible Aussie creatures up close!

Sun Room has introduced a new group of take-home friends, Melly, Bounce, Puggles, and Russell. These cuddly companions get to go home with our Sun Room children, joining them on their adventures before returning to share their experiences with the class. We love creating meaningful learning experiences that spark wonder and imagination every day.

From old to new ✨

We’re so excited to share the transformation happening at Haven! Our brand new floors have completely refreshed the space, bringing in a warm, modern feel that we absolutely love.

The Sun Room, River Room, and Field Room are already shining with their stunning new look!. The Forest Room is next this weekend, along with a full fresh coat of paint across the centre! Pictures of Forest and Field to come ✨✨

We couldn’t be happier with how Haven is evolving. It’s brighter, warmer, and more welcoming than ever… and we can’t wait for you to experience it.

Sun Rooms’ first park visit of the year today 🌞 Perfect timing before Melbourne flipped the weather. Lucky them, collecting their treasures in the sunshine to be later used for nature inquiry activities.

HAPPY EASTER 🐰 🐥
The children were delighted to see our little visitor this morning who may have left behind some little treats🥚

Enjoy the Easter break and all your celebrations, we will see you back on Tuesday.

Our 3-Year-Old Kinder Room has been focused on boundaries and keeping themselves safe in Forest Room.

'The Boundary Song'. teaches us all about how everyone has different boundaries and what they like and don't like.

After they had listened to the Boundary song, it was time for the children to brainstorm and voice their ideas, continuing to incorporate more children's voice within their room, the children themselves created a Forest Room Agreement of rules. This list will be displayed within the Forest Room environments alongside the visuals they created as a group to allow children to come back and remind themselves and others.

Involving children in creating rules is crucial because it transforms rules from forced restrictions into shared understandings. When children participate in this process, they develop a sense of ownership, responsibility, and empathy. Which leads to a more positive, safe environment as children take charge and are more willing to implement based off their ideas and voice.

Thanks Forest Room.

Butterflies at Haven 🦋 Babies, Toddlers and our 3-Year-Old Kinder room were lucky enough to have a visit from some Monarch Butterflies run by Butterfly Adventures.

Connecting to Country in Sun Room.

The toddlers have been very engaged in caring for the sun room garden recently, planting seeds, watering plants and connecting with their outdoor environment.
They extended on this by collecting fallen leaves to paint the colours of the Aboriginal flag, using this as an opportunity to learn their meanings. By using natural materials from the environment, the children were reminded that art, culture and land are interconnected.

Our 3-Year-Old Kinder room celebrated HOLI yesterday by throwing gulal to spread joy. The experience was thoroughly enjoyed by all!
