LivCare

Welcome to Livcare 2025.

As we started off the year in a new kinder, the combined groups of 3 and 4 year olds showed amazing resilience, negotiating new play spaces, routines, rituals and faces. A familiar routine enables the children to make a smooth transition from sessional kinder to extended care whilst having the same educators from their groups. We will continue to build on  new connections between our 3 and 4year old Livcare children as they respond to others ideas and suggestions when playing along side each other.

Relaxation or re-energising our bodies is a focal point for the longer Livcare sessions, as its a chance for the children to reset their mind and bodies. The children have choices to read stories, do some drawing with clipboards and pencils, look at timers, listen to a story or just be still whilst listening to music.

We have explored sensory provocations which included play dough- squeezing, stamping and rolling, birdseed for measuring and pouring and water play outside.

Other activities included

• Literacy- stories
• Games- freeze, shoe shop and musical mats
• Magnifying glasses in outside play
• Puzzles, construction and exploring light/dark with torches.
• Small World fair tray
• Loose parts in block area.
• Magnet coloured tiles- construction
• Roleplay in home corner
• Pasting, cutting and sticking anything!!

The Livcare team are able to build secure attachments, which allows the children to engage with our trusted educators.

Cheers,

Team Livcare.
