August News

Welcome to Our Latest Edition of Jellybean News! 

Firstly lets extend a warm welcome to all of our new families that have joined us over the past few weeks. We certainly hope that you enjoy your time here at the Centre and make wonderful new memories that you will look back on in the years to come. 

As most of you are aware there have been quiet a few minor changes occurring around the Centre, it feels like Christmas. It's amazing how a few simple changes can make a huge impact.......new equipment, window tinting on the Carpark side of the Centre, hanging pots on the Nursery Veranda and some new planter boxes with pots of colour added just to mention a few things. If you have any suggestions on changes we could implement please feel free to let us know. 

On Friday the 30th August we will have a "Breakfast on the Run" for our Families to celebrate Father's Day! Please be sure to grab something on your way in or out on Friday Morning. 

Wednesday the 4th September is Early Childhood Educator Day! This is a day where we recognise and celebrate the work of Australia's Educators in the Early Learning Sector for their wonderful contribution to the Wellbeing and Healthy Development of the young children in their care. It's a chance to say, "Thanks!" So with keeping this in mind I would like to encourage all of our families to either bring a plate for the Educators to share, write a few words of thanks in our Educators Book located in the foyer or even surprise the Educators with a special little memento. 

Educator News! 

Firstly we would like to wish Miss Pedeta who celebrated her Birthday in August, a very Happy Birthday! We know that you had a wonderful day as you had the opportunity to spend it with us! Happy Birthday Miss Pedeta! 

On another note Miss Maree has decided to move on from her position here at Jellybeans, her last day will be the 6th September. From everyone at Jellybeans we wish her all the best! 

We are super excited to announce Miss Xinh will be taking Miss Maree's place as the Assistant in the Senior Kindy Room. Miss Xinh has worked as a Casual for us over the past 12 months and also completed her Student Placement with us whilst she was studying her Diploma. From Parent Feedback we have received I believe Miss Xinh will be an asset to our Jellybean Team. Please help us make Miss Xinh feel welcome!

Nursery 1 News! 

 Hello to all our lovely parents and families!!

Wow, we are already almost at the end of winter!! Time surely does fly!

First of all, let us welcome our new friends Ava and Charlie and their families to our Nursery 1 room. We are thrilled to walk this amazing and meaningful learning journey altogether.

A Big HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY to Harper, Kikiope and Harlo who celebrated their birthdays during August. We all hope you had fun and enjoyed your special day!!!

Our babies have made so much progress, and we will continue to do it over the coming months. We will further develop by extending on individual strengths and by focusing on individual weaknesses.

Most of our older babies are displaying knowledge of routine and confidence with simple self-help skills such as holding their milk/water bottles, feeding finger food by themselves and walking confidently to the bathroom without holding hands.

Our Nursery Educators are supporting the babies with their development especially with their Gross Motor Skills, we will encourage children to climb on the bikes, tricycles and in the cars. We have lots of new and different varieties of cars, bikes and tricycles for the children to ride on.

We would just to give a friendly reminder to pack spare clothes for your child, please ensure your child's belongings are clearly labelled for easy identification. 

For safety and hygiene reasons, please ensure you take your child's bedding home daily. This will help assist to ensure that the items are being laundered weekly. 

Thank you for entrusting your little ones to our care, Jasmine and Ruby
