Cairns Kids Early Learning Centre Dedicated, Passionate and Experienced Educators Our dedicated team of educators understand how critical the first five years is to a child's development.

At Cairns Kids we believe children develop best when their days are filled with play, learning and fun. The important thing is to achieve the right balance.

Our National Reconciliation Week journey has been absolutely incredible, and today the excitement continued to build! 🌟✨

The children were fully immersed in First Nations culture today, transforming cardboard tubes into their very own beautiful didgeridoos 🎨🎵

Afterwards, we gathered around our indoor 'campfire' with Miss Lilly to hear stories of traditional cooking and test out our newly crafted instruments!

It has been so wonderful watching our little learners go 'All In' every single day this week, building deep connections and respect through play.

Can you believe tomorrow is already the final day of our celebrations?
We have something very special planned to wrap up this beautiful week.

Stay tuned, families! 👀🖤💛❤️💚💙

Our Senior Kindy friends had an exciting excursion to the library today! 📚✨

The children practiced their independence by personally returning their books through the chute and exploring the shelves to borrow new favourites.

The learning didn't stop there—their collaboration skills truly shined!

We are so impressed by how wonderfully our SK children communicate, share, and support one another during our community visits.
Way to go, Senior Kindy! 👏💚

Our National Reconciliation Week journey continues as we go 'All In' through art and creativity! 🎨✨

Our children have been exploring the beautiful meanings behind the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander flags. By using the traditional colours to create their own amazing paintings, they are learning about the rich histories and cultures of First Nations peoples.
Displaying their artwork with pride outside has been a wonderful way to show our shared respect and connection. We love seeing our little artists embrace such an important learning journey! 🖤💛❤️💚💙

Welcome to our beautiful 'Sea of Hearts'! ❤️💙💚🖤💛

Have you noticed the gorgeous display at the front of our centre? As part of our National Reconciliation Week celebrations, our children and educators have gone 'All In' to create this meaningful installation.

Each beautiful heart on our fence was hand-painted by our little learners, representing our shared love, respect, and unity. Together with our stunning 'Reconciliation Week' banner, it stands proudly at our gate to welcome all our wonderful families.

We invite all our parents and families to take a moment during drop-off or pick-up to admire the children’s amazing work and share in this journey of togetherness with us! 🌿✨

🌿 Junior Kindy’s Beautiful Reconciliation Week Journey! 🖤💛❤️

Our Junior Kindy children had a truly special Thursday as we continued our National Reconciliation Week learning!

We gathered together in a beautiful yarning circle to listen to Ms. Lilly share a wonderful story called My People. The children were absolutely engaged, listening with open hearts and minds as she shared about her beautiful culture and heritage. 🌾📖

Afterwards, our yard was filled with music and laughter! The children loved learning traditional Aboriginal songs and dances, happily copying the actions and moving together as one big family. 🎶🕺✨

To finish our day, our little artists explored patterns and textures through a beautiful leaf painting activity using cotton buds. It was amazing to see their creativity shine through such meaningful nature-based art! 🍂🎨

We are so proud of our Junior Kindy friends for showing such respect, curiosity, and togetherness today. 🥰

Our children had a wonderful sensory experience today thanks to a very special delivery! 🪴

Our lovely EL brought in some fresh lemongrass grown straight from her home garden😍

The children were fully engaged in a variety of learning experiences:
🙌Practicing their scissor skills by carefully snipping the long lemongrass leaves.
👃Discovering the fresh, citrusy scent and unique texture of the plant.
🧑‍🍳Whipping up some delicious 'lemongrass soup' in our mud kitchen, practicing pouring, scooping, and stirring!

It was a beautiful way to connect with nature and develop our skills through play.

Thank you so much to our EL for sharing your wonderful harvest with us! 💚

Look at our little explorers! 🥰
During our recent Bush Kindy excursion, the children showed great teamwork by setting up their picnic mat and getting creative with natural materials—check out that beautiful stick heart!
