Sesame Lane North Lakes - Astley Parade

Wishing all our mothers, grandmothers and other significant people in our children’s lives a wonderful Mothers Day.

Spider monkey at heart ❤️

Monkey bars are a great way for children to build strength, coordination and confidence 💪

At Astley, we support this play by creating safe environment with soft fall surfacing, close supervision and teaching children how to use equipment safely and responsibly.

Under the National Quality Standard (Quality 2- Children’s Health and Wellbeing)- we balance safety with opportunities for active, challenging play that supports growth and development.

Flu season is here, and in childcare, protecting little ones comes first 💛

The flu (influenza) spreads quickly in group settings, which is why educators support flu vaccinations each year. It helps reduce the risk of illness, keeps children save and protects families and the wider community.

Under the National Quality Standard (NQS), services are guided by Quality Area 2 where we support practices that minimise the spread of illness and promote wellbeing for the Children’s Health and Safety.

It’s all part of creating a healthy, caring environment where children can learn, play and grow 🌱

We are so incredibly proud of Miss Bhumika for completing her Graduate Diploma in Early Childhood Education- what an achievement 🌟👏🏼

We were so lucky to have two of our fathers who are in the military services visit our children today. 🌺

Through exploring X-Rays on the light board, Senior Kindy developed knowledge of body parts and how they function. This was extended through roleplay using first aid equipment with Miss Bhumika, supporting Outcome 3: Children have a strong sense of wellbeing and Outcome 4: Children are confident and involved learners, as children engaged in inquiry, problem solving and cooperative play.

Astley Parade wanted to wish you all a Happy Easter and safe holiday! We celebrated with Easter egg hunts, sensory small world play, craft activities and mini photoshoots 📸✨🐥

A big congratulations to Miss Nikita and Miss Dimple for completing their Certificate 3 in Early Childhood Education and Care. Wa-hoo! 🌟🤍
