Welcome Valued Families of Kidi Kingdom Child Care Pimpama.

How exciting to be sharing our Spring / Summer Newsletter of 2023 with you all. I would personally like to take this opportunity to thank you for choosing Kidi Kingdom as your childcare provider. I have had a wonderful experience meeting all our new families, children and team of superstar educators.

I hope that the lovely, sunny days that have finally arrived are being enjoyed by our family. As we approach the joyous season of Christmas, I am thrilled to provide some fantastic updates on what's been going on around our centre!

Our young children love Ginger Sport with Coach Mo! Playing soccer with Mr. Mo provides youngsters a safe, supportive, and positive atmosphere. It's an excellent sport for children to begin with. It imparts coordination and teamwork in a fun and upbeat manner.

Also we have an ongoing fun and active Tiny Tennis program with Miss Erin, designed specifically for 2 to 5 years olds. This program introduces our little ones to the basics of tennis, develops motor skills and hand-eye coordination, increases confidence and builds team play and group participation !!!

Happy Feet Fitness with Miss Emma, our children are welcomed into an environment where we encourage a growth mindset, an appreciation of health and an active lifestyle. We also provide them with educational content that broadens their horizons and equips them with the confidence they need to navigate through life.

Additionally, I would like to take this opportunity to extend a warm welcome to several incredible team members who have joined the Kidi Kingdom family.

Welcome to the Early Years Room.

What a fascinating time we have had whilst celebrating Father's Day, Grandparent's Morning Tea, Day for Daniel, Halloween, Diwali and many more events.

Each week we chose new topics to explore with the children by implementing new experiences. We create a safe environment for children during these fun experiences.

Our learning has been moving forward with a range of opportunities available for every child and their emerging interests. Our young children grasped new skills and knowledge on emotions, feelings, sea animals, wild animals, domestic animals, face parts, body parts, shapes, numbers, and alphabets. All these brilliant subjects have helped to keep our children interested and stimulated, keeping these fast-paced little human's going with no intention of slowing down developing their growing brains and bodies!

Our children also develop new skills as they engage in learning experiences that support their developing personalities. It is amazing that children are so committed to these experiences at such a young age and we look forward to sharing these wonderful learning developments and milestones with our families.

Kind Regards, Miss Kajal and Miss Talia.

Dear Valued Families of the Junior Early Learners Room.

We wish to extend a warm welcome to all of our families!

The last few months have been a great opportunity to celebrate multiculturalism, participation inclusiveness, diversity, respect and the sense of belonging for everyone in the centre and our community as we celebrated Halloween, Day for Daniel, Grandparent's Morning Tea and Father's Day. Our Diwali celebration extended in expressive arts and crafts, roleplay, music and dance.

Our morning group times have been a great success with children engaging in experiences that promote colour recognition, learning our names, learning new songs and listening to stories each day. The children have also shown great interest in learning about recycling. Teaching the children to care for the environment and turning recyclable items into art and crafts has been a focus of our learning. We would love any recyclable materials you may throw out at home as we can turn these items into something amazing.

The room program is age appropriate, safe, fun and based on the children's interests by encouraging independence, confidence, building friendships and creating a sense of belonging as the children explore new adventures, exciting activities and participate in experiences that support the children's imagination. We are all very excited for what the rest of the year has in store. We would also like to remind parents that your input is very important and appreciated.

Kind Regards, Miss Rebecca, Miss Kylie and Miss Kitvida.

Welcome Valued Families to the Early Learners Room.

Over the past three months we have been extending on the children's interests, strength and their abilities. We also celebrated Kidi Kingdom's calendar of events. The children participated in events such as Father's Day and got to spend time with their parents together at the centre. We also focused on "Child Protection Week" where we talked about stranger danger. We have explored learning games numbers, colours and problem solving and concentration including lego, puzzles and sensory exploration. We welcomed spring and participated in outdoor experiences with more daylight, as Spring & Summer is a representation of new life and light. We have also been spending time outdoors exploring our vegetable garden.

In the month of October, we learnt the importance of weather and explored the outdoor environment. We also participated in special events including the Diwali celebration in respect of diversity and Halloween party where we wore special costumes.

We have welcomed new friends in our room and are following our routine to ensure our little ones are comfortable and stable. With routines, babies understand the procedures and make their environment and day more predictable.

In the Early Learners room the children are always encouraged to explore all learning areas to express their interests and supported to feel comfortable and happy. I have noticed babies high interest in the yarning circle in the morning. A Yarning circle helps babies to understand the concept of building respectful relationships with others and welcome diversity. It also helps to enhance communication skills.

We are also focusing on drawing experiences with the children. We are providing the children with a variety of activities to develop their pre-writing skills and also we are encouraging the children to use the pincer grip to improve early writing skills.

Please contact us anytime if you wish to discuss your child's development and learning. Thank you to all our families for all your support.

Kind Regards, Miss Sandy and Miss Manpreet.

Welcome Valued Families to the Senior Early Years Room.

It has been a fun filled couple of months in the Senior Early Years Room ! We would like to start by welcoming all our new families to the Senior Early Years Classroom.

In the month of October, I joined the Kidi Kingdom Child Care Pimpama team. My name is Miss Kristell and I am your child's new lead educator. The children have done amazingly in establishing their own individual connection with me which has been comforting for me and for the children.

During this month, we have participated in many experiences supporting the children's emotions, hygiene, number and colour recognition and currently revisiting our ABC's. One activity that the children really loved participating in was making and decorating their own biscuits. Not only was it a great learning experience but the end result was yummy to eat.

I am really looking forward to the next few months where the children can start creating some Christmas decor for their families including Christmas trees for their homes and turning our classroom into a Christmas wonderland.

Kind Regards, Miss Kristell.

In our Kindergarten Room we have been focusing on our transition to Prep for 2024 and supporting the children in preparing for their new journey.

We have been introduced experiences, been involved in group & individual discussions, talked about how the children will eat lunch, play outdoors and learn in the classroom whilst starting their preparatory year.

Children's School Readiness is important to assist the children in feeling at ease when transitioning into the school system. We ensure the children are emotionally independent and feel confident in leaving the early education setting to a new environment.

During the last few months, we have also focused on the children's emerging skills. Early numeracy and literacy has played a big part in our education journey. This includes number recognition, counting and matching. We also introduced sensory sand trays where the children could trace different shapes and write letters in the sand. During our learning journey, we also participated in experiences with the interactive smart board including reading and writing.

We would like to take this opportunity to wish our 2023 Kindergarten Graduates a wonderful journey into their Prep year and many happy days at big school.

Kind Regards, Miss Assra and Miss Kiran.

Dear Valued Families of the School Care Room.

It has been absolutely amazing getting to know you and your children over the last couple of months. In such a short time we have made such magical memories together in our School Care space. We have spent the last few months adjusting to our new space and educators together.

Some of our afternoons are spent in our "school care space" tent, relaxing with the squishmallows. This space supports the development of our emerging self-regulation skills. We have also participated in some outdoor sports experiences. This has led us to exploring sporting culture, and discussing the way that we celebrate important events in our world.

School Care are now fully in the swing of things for Christmas and are counting down the days until our first Christmas vacation care together. Please notify our Centre Manager if you wish to enrol in our special school holiday program.

Kind Regards, Miss Destiny and Miss Melanie.
