April News

Hello and Welcome to the latest edition of Jellybean News! 

Hello and welcome to the latest edition of Jellybean News! We are pleased to announce it's business as usual here at Jellybeans and we can not wait for all of our families to resume care. Over the past few weeks, we have welcomed many of your smiling faces, which is great to see. Please remember to use the hand sanitizer located in the foyer on both arrival and departure, this will help us prevent germs being spread around. 

In the event that your child is showing any symptoms of being unwell please ensure you keep them at home until they have recovered. If your child is unwell and absent please keep in mind that you need to let us know, so that we can keep track of illnesses plus inform other families. 

When inside the Centre please be weary of Social Distancing Rules, for the present time I would like to remind you all about the importance of dropping and going plus limiting the extra family members coming and going from the service. Please refrain from bringing extra people to drop off or pick up, for the time being, one person should only be coming in or out of the Centre. Whilst I do understand this may be hard please remember it is only temporary. 

Lastly, I would like to extend a warm thanks to all of our families and Educators for their ongoing understanding and support during these unfamiliar times. The Centre is what it is due to you guys and I can't thank you enough. Together we have joined forces to keep the Centre operational and the place it is today, so let's look forward to the coming weeks without COVID-19.

Thanks 

Educator News! 

So this month we get to announce that Miss Stephanie and Miss Navneet are both expecting their own bundles of joy later this year! Please join me in congratulating these ladies and wishing them well with the safe arrival of their baby's. 

Miss Margaret and Miss Carla both celebrated their Birthdays in April. We certainly hope that you both had a wonderful day given the current situation.  

Miss Margaret has commenced her Long Service Leave, she will be away until July. We hope that the current restrictions get lifted soon so you can set off on your big adventure! It's so exciting when an Educator gets the opportunity to take Long Service Leave, it shows their many years of commitment to the Centre. 

Mother's Day  

​Unfortunately due to the social distancing rules surrounding COVID-19 we are unable to host our annual Mother's Day Morning Tea. However please be sure to watch out for our Mother's Day Rewards Pack! Every Mum will receive a complimentary ticket! The winner will be drawn on Friday! From everyone at Jellybeans, we would like to take the opportunity to say Happy Mother's Day to all of our Mums! We certainly hope that you all have a wonderful day!

Nursery News! 

Hello, everyone!

Autumn is in the air and in our Nursery room! We are looking forward to the warm weather, sunny skies, and outdoor time!!

April is going to be another busy month for us in the Nursery room. First, this month, we sang happy birthday to Sienna, Lily, and Kelsey. We wish you a big happy and wonderful 1st birthday.

It has been a fun-filled busy month so far, even though some of the children were away due to the COVID 19 circumstances. The little children seemed to really enjoy the seasonal songs and fingerplays that we have been introducing. We are looking forward to some fun storytime activities.

Easter is our theme this month. We are doing arts and crafts activities to celebrate Easter day, and we also started to decorate our room with Easter-themed artwork, such as the Easter bunny and egg coloring, collages, and paintings. It would be seen all over our Nursery room.

It is also exciting to see some of our little friends taking their first steps. We keep encouraging this physical skill and we are a very caring and nurturing for the little children. We are doing this by holding their hands while they are practicing their walking as well as introducing them to the walkers to encourage the children to further develop their walking skills.

We would like to give a friendly reminder, please make sure you labeled your child's belongings. The weather is getting cooler so pack some long sleeve clothes for your child.

Thank you for your ongoing support and big hugs for your Nursery room team.

Miss Jasmine, Miss Ruby, and Miss Margaret
