10 years of Chatham!
Sitting back and reflecting on all that has happened in the last 10 years has got us all about teary. Our wonderful families that have come and moved onto big school, families that have been with us for 10 years, the education and growth from environments to staff to children’s creative minds and the list goes on. Grateful for the last 10 years and all the memories. Any one that’s come through the doors of Chatham, their hearts are filled with joy and know there’s never a dull moment. Couldn’t thank enough the educators that have left and keep coming back! The educators that work tirelessly day in and out to make sure these little minds are supported and loved in everything they do, the educators that make children’s hearts happy and feel like they are with family when they are missing their loved ones, the educators who are passionate to be a part of a learning environment that’s supportive and feels like one big family.

Please leave below one of your favourite memories in the last 10 years and let’s all take a walk down memory lane 🧔

Let’s all congratulate Miss Clare on achieving 10 years at The Rumpus room. Miss Clare has been one of the original staff to help create Chatham St into the wonderful, play based learning environments it is. Her creativity, eye for beautiful spaces and many countless hours of thinking and reflecting to better our service is truly remarkable and we couldn’t be more grateful. We couldn’t thank you enough for your wisdom, passion for the Early Years sector, inspiring children and staff and just being such a wonderful teammate and mentor for many. You’re irreplaceable and one of a kind. Chatham and Rumpus as a whole is beyond lucky to have you šŸ¤Ž

From being nurtured to becoming the nurturer šŸ’›
We captured a full circle moment today as our preschoolers cared for a younger baby, just as they were once cared for themselves!
Mixed-age settings create a rich, interconnected learning community where care, connection, and cooperation come naturally šŸ«¶šŸ»

Sunny Thursdays at Chatham look a little like this. It’s filled with literacy, imagination, yummy pumpkin soup, learning a new Samoan dance with Ms Tee and lots of cute baby smiles ā˜€ļø

Soaking up the sunshine and stories
Surrounded by curious minds and joyful hearts, our special moments together remind us that the best learning often happens when we simply sit, share, and imagine together. šŸ’›āœØ

When children are given the tools to use their imagination, it’s amazing to see what beauty can be found. The children were fascinated and made lots of comments about where the colour might go on the page and could identify the emotions on the lady with green. There is nothing better than seeing their little creative minds explore and grow šŸŽØ
