Welcome to October
Even though World Teachers day is 5th October 2019,  I have been informed that Australia celebrates this on the last Friday of October due to school holidays.
Ideas and Information
The lifelong benefits of play.......

Play is a great way for children to amuse themselves and live in the moment, but according to the experts, play offers much more than just fun and games.

Researchers have linked childhood play with adult achievement, so let's see how play can help children understand and experience the world, develop vital skills and possibly even get a good job later in life.

Is dried fruit a healthy snack?

Young children can be picky eaters, both literally and figuratively, and for this reason, dried fruit often appeals. It's easy for little fingers to pick up and comes with a burst of sweetness that tastebuds love.

Dried fruit is one of those foods that should be enjoyed in moderation, so before your child motors through another box of sultanas, let's take a look at how healthy this fruity snack really is.

Professional Development Opportunity

As the In Home Care Support Agency, we are funded to support you. 
We are organising an Educators Event on 27th November 2019.
Training and information will be from 9:30 - 2:30 so school drop-off and pick-up's can occur.

It has been brought to our attention that there could be issues when it comes to offering childcare due to duty of care obligations. 
After Consulting with the Department of Education, unfortunately Childcare on this day is not a possibility.

Watch out for further information regarding this event.
