Welcome Valued Coomera Families!

I hope you all had a wonderful winter! I've been seeing special moments being made in all of the classrooms and beautiful bonds created between the children and their peers and educators.

I have been working with our outstanding educators in creating more welcoming and stimulating environments based on your child's strengths, interest and needs. We had a great time during Book Week at the end of August! To strengthen the children's growing love for books, our educators have been engaging in one-on-one conversational reading with the children and focusing on various themes explored in each classroom's "Book of the Week".

A friendly reminder, you can stay up to date with classroom news and events via the Hubhello App.

Kind Regards, Ms Stephanette Roaché, Educational Program Leader.

Welcome Valued Centre Families,

We would like to take this opportunity to welcome our new children into the room, Teddi and Jai ! Our Early Learners have had a very exciting last three months, the classroom focus has been on learning our colours.

We have had lots of fun exploring colours through painting, sensory play, reading, colour sorting and songs. Over the last few months all of the children have met new milestones. Some have begun talking, crawling, walking, standing, and recognising various colours.

Our children are developing new skills as they participate in learning experiences that support their developing personalities. It is great to see so much engagement in these experiences from the children at this young age and we look forward to sharing these amazing learning developments and milestones with our families.

Kind Regards, Miss Courtney and Miss Gracie.

Welcome Families to the Junior Early Years Room!

What a fascinating time we have had!

During this quarter, we celebrated so many events in the Junior's Early Years Room. While celebrating National Reconciliation Week and Naidoc Week, the children acknowledged and understood the histories, cultures, and contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

The children were also thrilled to have a picnic outdoors with their teddy bears. The educators created an amazing cosy environment by adding tents, balloons, slinkies, bubbles, party whistles and various picnic themed snacks. The toddlers sat in small groups enjoying the food and sharing conversation with each other and their cherished teddy bears.

Other celebrations participated in include; National Best Friends Day, Yoga Day, and Aunt's and Uncle's Morning Tea. These events provided various opportunities for our toddlers to grow and learn about their community and the world around them.

Every week we chose new topics to explore with children by doing different activities. We made sure to create a safe and secure environment for children during these fun experiences.

This month of August, we have incredible and infinite ideas for National Children's Day, National Red Rose Day, National Science Week, and Children's Book Week. We cannot wait to be involved in all these events as we all are super excited.

Our learning has been moving forward with a range of opportunities available. Our young children grasped new information 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 toddlers interested and stimulated, keeping these fast-paced little human's going, with no intention of slowing down developing their growing brains and bodies!

Kind Regards, Miss Puneet, Miss Harman and Miss Amber.

Dear Valued Families of the Senior Early Years Room,

We trust you had a nice winter this year. Welcome to the Senior Early Years Room newsletter, we are excited to share what your children have been up to and what's coming up next!

The children have been actively engaged in our Winter program. They have enjoyed indoor and outdoor activities ranging from creative crafts, sensory activities and storytelling sessions. We have been celebrating cultures and histories by engaging in dreamtime storytelling, connecting with country and Music, dance and art. Our Yarning circles have been busy and joyful, the children are focusing on emotional recognition, listening to stories and reflecting on ideas through conversation, colour recognition and counting numbers each day.

We will continue to learn and develop based on our age appropriate topics in the next coming months...

Appreciation and respect for others including ourselves and the natural environment. We look forward to celebrating more special events and making more wonderful memories in our classroom!

Kind Regards, Ms Mayu, Ms Astrid and Ms Amie.

Greetings Kindergarten Families,

The Kindergarten children have been busy bees in the classroom this past semester! We have engaged in so many stimulating experiences, activities and events, the children are always engaged in exciting learning experiences.

The children have been focused on letter recognition, number recognition, phonics, practising & strengthening their writing skills in preparation for the transition to primary school. We are super learners and the children are always eager to share their knowledge and skills with their educators and peers.

Our yarning circles have been a great success, all the children are actively involved in stimulating conversations about various topics of interest and discovering new things about their world.

Your trash is our treasure! If you have any recyclable goods at home like cardboard boxes, empty milk containers, tissue boxes please donate to our classroom! Recyclable materials are perfect for the children's Creation station where we use these items for art and craft projects.

Kind Regards, form the Kindergarten Classroom.

Welcome Valued Families of School Care,

Our before and after school care children have been having so much fun at the centre. This term's current interest the children are all things Science! We have been participating in some very cool science experiments. In the mornings and afternoons, the school care children have been eager to help create stimulating obstacle courses and learning spaces for the long day care children in our outdoor playgrounds. It is fantastic to see the school children's enthusiasm and responsibility, the guidance and support from the educators has been rewarding for all involved. And the younger children really enjoy the dynamic obstacle courses provided in the outdoor playgrounds.

Kind Regards, Miss Rachael.
