❤️ A beautiful moment of connection. The authentic relationships we form with our little ones builds the foundations for them to be confident and capable individuals in our space and more importantly, within themselves. Thanks for capturing this moment Tarah x #relationshipsmatter #oppsphilosophy #authenticrelationships #connection

We love hearing the excitement of self satisfaction when our little ones succeed at their ventures.

❤️ Art is always more than paintbrushes and paper. We love watching our little ones express themselves using brushes and their hands to paint our fence totally immersed in the sensory experience. Today’s choice of yellow and blue paint by the children added to their experience as they discovered the many shades of green they could make as they swirled and mixed the colours.

❤️ An awesome day taking ownership and responsibility for our beloved sandpit by helping Mark to refill with fresh sand. Many hands make light work and our bodies and well-being benefit from the physical work of helping out. Wheelbarrow rides are always a treat as well.

❤️ Last night our team came together for a bit of ten pin bowling fun and a beautiful meal at Atmos to celebrate the year that was.
Play School would not be the same without this awesome bunch of passionate educators.
Thank you for everything that each of you bring to our team and we are looking forward to a wonderful 2022.

❤️ This is definitely our most favourite night of the year. Our annual pizza and craft farewell at Play School. Whilst we are always sad to see our little ones move onto their next chapters of play and exploring, we are grateful for the time that we have spent with each of them and all the wonderful moments we have been privileged to be part of. Thank you all for a wonderful night and thank you for entrusting your little ones with us, we are going to miss this bunch ❤️

❤️ Last night we had our annual awards night team meeting. As always, there was plenty of food, a few drinks, lots of laughs and great company. Always such a joyful way to see in the last few weeks of the year.
