Early Learning

We have had a wonderful start to the year at our Early Learning Centre, welcoming children and families across our four Kinder groups. This year we have two four-year-old Kinder groups: Possum (Kooramook) and Echidna (Weelangkeel), and two three-year-old Kinder groups: Wombat (Meeyam) and Koala (Weengkeel). 

We have been enjoying beginning to get to know the children and their families, and observing the creative ways children are using spaces and resources. Many of the children have commented that their favourite part of Kinder is playing outside! We are blessed with a beautiful outside space, with trees and undercover areas for shade, and some veggie gardens we are keen to start planting in. 

It has been lovely to see lots of smiles and laughter as children discover the unexpected and take delight in their environment and in other people. I am reminded of the phrase repeated in Genesis 1: "And God saw that it was good". It is good to be at Kinder, enjoying the space we have been blessed with, and learning about and exploring God’s world with the children.
