🎉 Celebrating 25 Years of Bindook Cottage 🎉
Today marks a very special milestone as Bindook Cottage celebrates 25 years!
For 25 years, Bindook Cottage has been a place where children have learnt, grown, explored and created lasting memories. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has been part of the Bindook journey over the past 25 years and to the families who continue to trust us with their children’s early learning and care.
Thank you to everyone who has been part of the Bindook story. We are proud of all that has been achieved and look forward to creating many more special memories together.
We look forward to celebrating this special milestone with our families later this month!
Happy 25th Birthday, Bindook Cottage! 🎉

World Bee Day was a buzzing hit across both the Mulligrub and Bunyip rooms this week! 🐝🍯
The children loved exploring our bee-themed goop sensory play with bees, flowers and honeycomb, using scoops, tweezers and their hands to explore the different textures.
Both rooms also enjoyed making honey toast and honey sandwiches while talking about bees, honey and how bees help our environment 🐝✨

Earth Day at Bindook 🌏💚
Today we explored how we can care for our Earth in meaningful and hands-on ways. The children sorted recycling, learning what goes where and why it’s important.
The Bunyips created their own Earth artworks, while the Mulligrubs made windsocks using recycled materials, giving new life to items we might usually throw away.
We also had some lovely discussions about simple ways we can look after our planet every day 🌿
