Ruse Early Learning Centre

Happy Mother’s Day

The service had a wonderful time celebrating Mother’s Day with our families and community. Our Mum’s enjoyed creating flower bouquets, decorating cookies, painting with mum and making relaxing bath salts.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the day so special.

Our garden makeover is underway 🌱

While exploring, the children discovered grub worms and have been learning about their role in our garden’s life cycle 🐛 Such a great hands-on learning experience!

We’d love your input, what should we plant? 🌼🥕

Once everything is ready to harvest, families and friends are warmly invited to join us and take home some of our homegrown goodies!

Our preschoolers have been diving into the fascinating world of mealworms this week!

Through hands-on exploration, the children observed how mealworms move, what they eat, and how they grow. We talked about life cycles and discovered that mealworms eventually turn into beetles, what an amazing transformation!

The children were curious, gentle, and full of thoughtful questions. Activities like this help build early science skills, encourage empathy for living things, and spark a sense of wonder about the natural world.

We’re so proud of how engaged and excited everyone has been during this learning experience. Who knew such tiny creatures could inspire such big curiosity?

We’re so proud to be growing a culture of sustainability in our centre 🌱

Thanks to the generosity of our families, our new Sustainable Station is already thriving! Children are exploring and reusing donated materials like cardboard, jars, milk bottles, bottle caps, and rolls, turning everyday items into meaningful learning experiences while building lifelong recycling habits ♻️

Our commitment to caring for the environment continues through our community garden, worm farm, recycling systems, energy-saving practices (like switching off lights), and using reusable cloths instead of paper towels. Every small step is helping our children understand the importance of protecting our planet 🌏

A special thank you to our Sustainability Officer, Miss Kinga, for guiding and inspiring these wonderful practices.

We’d love your ideas! What other sustainable practices could we introduce in our centre? Let’s work together to create a greener future for our children 🌿

Happy Easter!

A big thank you to all the wonderful families who joined us for our Easter Hat Workshop and Easter Hunt. It was so lovely to see so much creativity, laughter, and community spirit. 💛

We hope you had as much fun as we did and made some special memories along the way. Wishing you all a joyful and relaxing Easter! 🐰✨

Harmony Week 🌿

This week, our children embraced the beauty of diversity as we celebrated Harmony Week together. Families were invited to share a special part of their culture, and we were delighted to see children bring along traditional clothing, meaningful items, and delicious foods to share with their friends.

Through these experiences, the children explored different cultures, learned about one another’s backgrounds, and discovered that while we may all be different, we belong together. 💛
