Last Wednesday, 2 September, we celebrated Educator Day and recognised the amazing work of our dedicated educators.

A huge thank you to all our families for the thoughtful gifts, kind messages, and heartfelt appreciation shown to our team. Your support made the day extra special and reminded our educators just how valued they are.

Thank you for celebrating with us and for being such an important part of our community. 🌟

🌟 Welcome Chantelle to Our Kindergarten Room! 🌟

We are excited to welcome Chantelle to our Kindergarten room at Goodstart Maida Vale!

Chantelle brings with her many years of experience in early childhood education and a wealth of knowledge, passion, and dedication to supporting children's learning and development. She has recently relocated from Dunsborough, where she worked as a Lead Educator, building strong relationships with children and families and creating engaging learning environments.

We are thrilled to have Chantelle join our team and know that our Kindergarten children will benefit greatly from her experience, enthusiasm, and commitment to providing high-quality early learning experiences.

Please join us in giving Chantelle a warm Goodstart Maida Vale welcome! 💙😊

🌼 Daffodil Day Fun! 🌼

The children celebrated Daffodil Day by creating their very own daffodil paintings. They carefully used brushes and bright colours to bring their flowers to life, producing some beautiful artwork to display.

The children also enjoyed exploring a Daffodil Day sensory tray filled with exciting materials to touch, scoop, and investigate. Sensory play encouraged curiosity, creativity, and plenty of wonderful conversations throughout the day.

What a fantastic way to learn, create, and celebrate together!

📚🐻 Book Week Adventures in Toddler 2: We're Going on a Bear Hunt! 🐻📚

We brought We're Going on a Bear Hunt to life with an exciting outdoor adventure! The trees became long, wavy grass, balancing blocks turned into sticky mud, the sandpit transformed into a deep river, and our cubby house became a dark cave.

The children loved exploring each part of the story before discovering the bear and running back through every obstacle to safety. Through imaginative play, movement, and storytelling, children were fully immersed in the adventure and experienced the joy of bringing a favourite book to life.

🌿💦🐾 "We're going on a bear hunt... we're not scared!" 🐻✨

🐛📚✨ Book Week Magic with The Very Hungry Caterpillar! ✨📚🦋

As part of our Book Week celebrations, our educators brought Eric Carle's beloved story The Very Hungry Caterpillar to life through dramatic play.

Itsara took on the role of the very hungry caterpillar, delighting the children as she acted out the caterpillar's journey of eating, growing, and preparing for its transformation. The children watched with excitement as the story unfolded before their eyes.

The magic continued when the cocoon opened and Kalpana emerged as a beautiful butterfly, showcasing the incredible transformation from caterpillar to butterfly. The children were captivated by the dramatic change and eagerly joined in with their own movements, ideas, and imaginative play.

This interactive experience encouraged creativity, storytelling, and active participation, helping children connect with literature in a meaningful and memorable way.

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.

📚 Book Week Day 1 🐷

Monday, we kicked off our Book Week celebrations with the classic story The Three Little Pigs.

Children brought the story to life through a sensory story tray, exploring materials such as spaghetti for straw, paddle-pop sticks for sticks, LEGO for bricks, and shredded paper for the fields. Using character blocks, they enjoyed retelling the story, sparking imagination, curiosity, and creative play.

What a wonderful start to our Book Week adventures! 🌟📖
