Central Park Childcare Centre

One of our educators, Raj, decided it would be nice for the children to work on a group project creating a rainbow out of colourful crepe paper. First, she drew an outline of a rainbow on a large piece of paper and then the children discussed and decided how many colours they needed and in which order they should go. Then they took coloured crepe paper and scrunched them up into smaller balls that they could easily glue on. We put the rainbow outline up on the fence in the garden so everyone could have a turn throughout the day and glue on their favourite colour. What a beautiful rainbow we made!

The Educators set up a new play area for the children, designed to operate like an airport. Using our creativity and imagination, we have a check-in desk, a security scanner and an aeroplane for children to sit in.

As an extension of the children’s recent interest in Arctic animals, and because it has been so cold recently, Marlene thought the children would like to make some penguins.

As an extension of our growing interest in insects (as we have recently had many ladybugs come to our playground for a visit), I thought the children would enjoy making some ladybugs of their own.
