We provide a fun and safe environment for school aged children to enjoy their time before and after school, as well as during vacation care on school holidays and pupil free days. We provide a healthy breakfast, a snack for afternoon tea, and plan a variety of craft, art, games, gardening, sports and play experiences for children’s’ enjoyment and development. We are based in our own room near the prep playground, but also make use of other school facilities as required.
We work within the Australian Government’s “My Time, Our Place” National Quality Framework to meet the following five child outcomes:
1. Children have a strong sense of identity
2. Children are connected with and contribute to their world
3. Children have a strong sense of wellbeing
4. Children are confident and involved learners
5. Children are effective communicators
Our service is committed to continuous improvement, and we take a collaborative approach to this, with input from our children, parents, staff, Hendra Northgate Parish and the Our Lady Help of Christians Primary School community.
Our service is licensed to care for 45 children and is registered for the Child Care subsidy.
I’ve been an early ed coordinator for:
Eight years.
My favourite thing about being an early ed coordinator is:
Watching families and communities grow strong over time.
Something I like to tell all mums and dads is:
Enjoy all of the little things because their child’s primary school years will pass by so quickly.
My favourite way to relax is:
A cup of tea and a good book.
Your child’s health and wellbeing is our top priority and we recognise the essential role sleep, rest and relaxation plays in your child’s development.
As children grow they develop confidence and self-esteem from their interactions with others. There are a number of things you can do to help your children grow into confident young people, and in this article we look at some simple strategies you can use to build your child’s self-esteem.
Just as we all have different interests, tastes and preferences, we all have different ways of learning. This is especially true of young children, who will all learn in different ways and at their own pace. It’s important to allow children to learn and grow in the way that suits them best.
