🌟 Celebrating One of Our Amazing Parents! 🌟

We are incredibly proud to celebrate one of our talented parents who has created a beautiful children's book that supports families navigating big transitions and life changes.

Honey's Big Move follows Honey on an emotional journey as she leaves behind her friends, school and most importantly, her beloved Grandma Christine and Grandad Brian, to begin a new life in Perth. Through Honey's experiences, young readers are gently guided through the complex emotions that often accompany major changes, including excitement, fear, curiosity and sadness.

We love seeing members of our community creating meaningful resources that support children's wellbeing, emotional development and resilience. Congratulations on this wonderful achievement and for helping children and families feel seen, understood, and supported during life's big adventures. 💛📚

Ever had one of those "What should I be doing with my child?" moments? You might already have the answer at home.

Earlier this year, every Goodstart family received a What & When for Families guide for each child. If it's been tucked away in a drawer since then, now might be the perfect time to pull it back out.

The guide is packed with simple, play-based activities that support your child's learning and development at home. Best of all, it's written in your child's voice, with ideas tailored to their age and developmental stage.

From singing songs with babies and playing peek-a-boo, to "I Spy" games, storytelling and treasure hunts with older children, the activities are designed to fit naturally into everyday moments you already share together.

We know learning doesn't only happen in the classroom. Those small moments at home can help build big communication, language and literacy skills.

Take another look through your What & When for Families guide to explore age-appropriate activities and learning ideas you can try together.

💛 Sometimes the best learning resource is the one you already have at home.

🚨 WARNING: Our Educators Have Been Replaced! 🚨

Today, our centre was taken over by storybook characters!

We've spotted: 🦸 Heroes 🧙 Wizards 👑 Royalty 🐻 Curious creatures 📚 A few characters who may have wandered straight out of their books and into our classrooms!

Don't worry, learning is still happening... just with a little extra imagination and a lot more costumes! 😆

📚🎉 Book Week is Here! 🎉📚

Look who has arrived to kick off the fun... Thing One and Thing Two! 💙❤️

Our Centre Director Kacey and Educational Leader Adrielle are getting into the Book Week spirit and can't wait to celebrate a week filled with stories, imagination, creativity, and adventure!

We encourage all of our families to join in the excitement by dressing up as your favourite book characters throughout the week. Whether it's a much-loved classic, a superhero from a story, or a character you've created yourself, we'd love to see everyone get involved.

Reading opens the door to endless possibilities, and Book Week is a wonderful opportunity to inspire a lifelong love of books and storytelling in our children.

📖✨ Let's make this week one to remember with costumes, stories, laughter, and plenty of Book Week magic!

Don't forget to share your costumes with us and keep an eye on our page for all the fun happening throughout the week.

⚽🥄 Learning through play in our Nursery room!

Our nursery friends had a wonderful time exploring with balls and scoops today. As they carefully scooped, carried, and transferred the balls, they were developing important hand-eye coordination skills while having lots of fun!

Activities like these help strengthen fine and gross motor skills, improve concentration, and encourage children to practise controlling their movements as they track, grasp, and move objects. These early experiences are essential for building the coordination needed for everyday tasks as they grow.

🔤📚 Building early literacy skills through play!

Our Kindy children have been busy exploring letters through fun matching and recognition activities. As they identified letters, matched them together, and practised naming them, they were developing important early literacy skills that lay the foundation for future reading and writing.

Letter recognition helps children begin to understand that letters have names, sounds, and meaning. Activities like these also support memory, concentration, problem-solving, and confidence as children become familiar with the building blocks of language.

You can support literacy development at home by pointing out letters in books, on signs, or around the house, and encouraging your child to find and name the letters they recognize.

✂️📰 Cutting, creating, and building important skills!

Our Kindergarten children have been busy cutting pictures and shapes from magazines, strengthening a range of important developmental skills along the way. As they carefully snipped and cut, they were developing fine motor strength, hand-eye coordination, concentration, and scissor control, all essential foundations for future writing and self-help skills.

Magazine cutting also encourages creativity, decision-making, and language development as children explore different images, discuss their choices, and bring their ideas to life through art and play.

Want to continue the learning at home? 🏡 Simply gather some old magazines, child-safe scissors, and let your child cut out pictures that interest them. They can create collages, sort images into categories, or even make a vision board of their favourite things!

Learning opportunities are everywhere, and sometimes the simplest activities can have the biggest impact. 🌟

🏃‍♀️🌟 Jumping, balancing, and having fun!

Our Kindergarten children had an exciting time taking on hurdle challenges today! As they leapt over obstacles and navigated the course, they were building their confidence, coordination, balance, and gross motor skills in a fun and engaging way.

Physical activity plays an important role in supporting children's overall wellbeing. Activities like hurdles help develop strength, agility, spatial awareness, and resilience, while encouraging children to stay active and challenge themselves in a positive environment.

There were plenty of smiles, determination, and celebrations as our little athletes gave it their best effort! 💙💪
