Welcome to the Piptree Heritage Park Room News
 

Wow, what can we say.  The year is flying by, we are now thinking about Christmas. with only 7 Friday's to go.  The staff are putting their heads together coming up with some great gifts to create for our Wonderful Parents.

Our children's Christmas concert and party will take place on Friday 14th December, starting at 5:00 pm.  Get ready for an afternoon/night of entertainment and fun.  All families Must RSVP by Friday 30th of November, so no child misses out on the fun evening.  Invitations can be found in your child's pocket.  If siblings are attending that are not enrolled at the centre, we ask if the families can provide a wrapped book with a name tag for Santa to hand out to them.

Can and Bottle collection 

the centre is now collecting cans and bottles to go towards fundraising.  As we all know every little bit counts. 

A big Thank you 

On Saturday 17th November, a few members of the Piptree team and their children attended a fundraiser.  We would like to thank all the families that donated toys to GIVIT to go to children in care.  The donations were much appreciated on the day. The aim was to collect around 5000 toys, By the look of the Christmas tree on the day they were well and truly there.  

Pip's Room News

Welcome to the Pips room news,

Thanks to all our families who attended our Spooky Disco, it was great to see our little Pips joining in and showing of their very cool dance moves. :-) Wow where has this year gone !

The Pips have been very busy getting creative with doing their Christmas crafts.

The children have been exploring all the different textures and mediums of the collage materials we have been using to decorate with.

Our babies are growing up so fast! They are all on the move weather it be crawling or walking. They are all interacting and chatting away to each other and forming friendships.

It's been great to see all the children developing and reaching their developmental mile stones.

If there is any family traditions you'd like us to incorporate into the curriculum leading into the festive season of Christmas please let myself or Miss Kayla know as we would love for you to share.

I am putting a reminder board up on top of our lockers for our up coming events Please have look!

A Big Welcome to Willow who has joined our room recently. 

Merry Christmas everyone

Blossoms Room News 

During the month of November the Blossoms children showed great interests in Exploring Around the World. We did our first stop in Canada, followed by New Zealand, Samoa, Australia and also learnt about our Aboriginal culture. The children showed respect in each others cultures and participated in the activities. We are so proud that the Blossoms are well equipped in terms of shapes, colours, numbers, name recognition, alphabet and days of the week. We've been busy at the Halloween disco, Grand Parents day, Day for Daniel and we do commemorate the love of our soldiers to our country on Remembrance Day. The children are getting busy now on making our Christmas Decorations and gifts for our parents.

We are also looking forward to our colour run and getting very messy.

A big Hello to Mia who recently joined us.

Until next time
