Rest is as important for growth, development and health as nutrition and physical activity. Children become very busy at day care and are consistently on the go so they need to rest. Rest does not always mean sleeping. We are aware that some children will not sleep and that’s ok. However, we do expect all children to rest on beds to allow the children who require a sleep time to do so. After 30 mins the children who do not require a sleep are able to participate in quiet activities.
Yes, we have team of core Educators that are rostered on in each room for consistency. We have a pool of regular relief Educators who the children are familiar with that we use as replacement Eeducators when our core Educators are away.
Communication is very important and we have many different methods to keep you up to date with what is happening during your child’s day. Each family will be given access to our parent communication tool, Storypark. Newsletters, emails, posters, photos, slideshows, group project books, phone calls and face to face chats are more ways we can communicate. Like us on Facebook for reminders, photos and videos of what’s happening around our centre.
