The Gruffalo said that no gruffalo should
ever set foot in the deep dark wood… One wild and windy night the Gruffalo’s child ignores her father’s warning and tiptoes out into the snow. After all, the Big Bad Mouse doesn't really exist. Does he? The team behind The Gruffalo return with The Gruffalo's Child, bringing together physical theatre, music and puppetry to deliver songs, laughs and scary fun for children aged 3 and up, and their adults… Tickets can be purchased online @ http://www.qpac.com.au/event/Gruffalos_Child_15.aspx Suitable for children 3 years and up. Babies 18 months or under are free on the knee. Have you ever wondered about the best way to have 'the talk' with your children?

It is that time of year when many families are beginning to attend school orientations, interviews and information evenings. This is a good time of year to check in with your child's teacher (if you have not already done so) about how your child's learning is progressing at kindy and their readiness to move on to the next phase in their educational journey. If you feel that your child would benefit from another year of kindergarten, you can find information about this process here.
Please be aware that as of 2015 the process for seeking a delayed exit from kindergarten has changed. These changes are outlined on Office of Early Childhood Education and Care website (link above). It is important that you speak with your child's teacher and/or the office at the kindy as soon as possible if you are thinking about a delayed exit as enrolments for 2016 have now commenced. |
