A big welcome !

The kids are back to school (some of them started big school) and everyone has settled in. All new routines are in place and we are all getting used to it. This is not only a rule for the kids but also for us in the Centre. It falls all into place now, almost everything is unpacked, we have electricity, our birdy is back :-) and there's plenty of time now to enjoy the new Centre!

Finally time to Welcome all the new kids who are attending the School Care. It can be a bit scary by times to come in for the first time, not knowing a lot of other children and getting used to all the rules that others already know so well.... but they are all gorgeous kids and we are so lucky with a bunch of beautiful children to look after! Hopefully the new ones are enjoying it as much as we do, but if there's anything you want to talk about, please come in and ask Julee or one of the carers for more information!

As you might have noticed, the aim is to get accounts out to you once a week (most of the times on a Tuesday). Often the system accidentally didn't upload the CCB or even the attendance of the kids. By sending the accounts out regularly we keep you up-to-date with the hours/outstanding amount, as well we notice and are able to solve problems in an earlier stage.
The policy states that all fees are to be paid at the end of each week, so please make your payments on a regular base if possible.

Another note to the parents is that the Staff-car park (fenced car park in front of the school) from Copacabana PS, can't be used for parents while dropping off their children. The school needs those places for their teachers. Thank you!

WE ARE IN!!!

Last monday was the first time we could open the door for our kids in the new Centre. 

It's amazing... it looks great even it's not finished yet, and it feels like heaven to have that much space for everyone!

Welcome!!!

The children wouldn't know but the staff is trying really hard to manage without electricity in the building... We're getting there, next week that issue must be solved :-)

Wow, it has gone so quick... a couple of more days and the kids are heading back to school...
Where would we be without vacation-care?
Kids were so happy and I think we organised some pretty nice things for them to have fun during the holidays...

Our new building has arrived!!!!!

We are so excited... the building has arrived today and it looks truly amazing!

Unbelievable how smooth it all went and so happy to let you know that the new building is on site and that we will be in as soon as possible!

It took 6 trucks (coming over from Queensland) and a lot of hard work... our new Centre is here and after the plumbing and electricity is done we finally will be able to enjoy it with all the children and Staff.

What a roller-coaster is has been Julee, but you did it and it will be so beautiful to work in a new, fresh and modern environment!!! Congrats xxx
