Helping Hands News
We are in week 9 Hurray!!
Almost end of term and we are getting excited for vacation care make sure you have your bookings set for the holidays.
We have started a new afternoon routine with the children that gets them learning and playing together much quicker. They get to enjoy the playground and then straight into afternoon tea. We have seen the children be more engaging with each other.
The children have been showing interest in the piano we have, and we have been able to teach them some scales. They love to learn and show that they can play the piano, playing the scales that they have learnt.
REMINDERS:
- Please confirm your bookings are correct via the iparent portal.
- We still have some lost property in the black bucket outside the service. Please encourage your child/ren to check this regularly or come and have a look when you collect your children (there are drink bottles, jumpers and hats with no names).
If your child/ren will be absent from a session, please ensure they are marked absent on the iparent portal. This is done under the bookings tab by selecting the date/session and clicking the red X on the right. Alternatively, please send the service a text message on the mobile number below. Failure to notify us of absences in after school care means educators are having to search for children and a no-show fee may be applied to your account. A reminder that bookings with less than 24hrs will need to be made via contacting the service on 0459 991 697.
