Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children’s Day at Papilio Bundoora!

Today, we proudly celebrated Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children’s Day, a day that recognises and celebrates the strengths, culture, identity and voices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.

As part of our learning, the children across our centre worked together to create their very own Acknowledgement of Country. Through discussions, artwork and collaborative experiences, they explored what makes the land special, who shares it with us, and the importance of caring for Country, respecting First Nations Peoples, and valuing the connections between people, land, sky and water.

Today reminds us that every child has the right to feel proud of who they are, to have their culture celebrated, and to grow up knowing that their voice matters.

Supporting families to connect with community 💙

At Papilio Bundoora, we know that raising children takes a village, and sometimes finding the right support, service or activity can feel overwhelming.

That’s why we have created our Community Resources Wall, filled with easy-to-access QR codes for local health services, leisure activities, family support services, kindergartens, schools and parent education resources.

Whether families are looking for allied health support, local activities, parenting information or community connections, we hope this space helps make accessing support that little bit easier.

We are proud to continue building strong partnerships with our families and wider community, because when families feel supported, children thrive. 💫

🤲 Child Safety Is Always Important 🤲

At Papilio Bundoora, child safety is not just a project or a one-off conversation, it is something we continue to embed in our everyday practice, relationships and learning.

As part of supporting children to understand safety, trust and belonging, our children have been exploring who their safe people are, the people they can go to when they need help, comfort, care or support.

These conversations help children build confidence in using their voice, recognising trusted adults and understanding that they have the right to feel safe, heard and protected.

We are proud to continue building a strong, safe and connected community where children’s voices are valued every day. 💙✨

On Wednesday our children celebrated World Bee Day 🐝🌼

Our Toddlers enjoyed a creative art experience, using recycled bubble wrap and paint to create their very own bee hives. Experiences like these help children learn about sustainability, nature and the important role bees play in our world. 💛

We love creating hands-on learning experiences that inspire curiosity and creativity every day.

Imagine spending your day looking out the window and watching this… 🐰💛

Our children have been loving the chance to observe and care for our beautiful rabbits. Having pets in an early learning environment offers so many meaningful learning opportunities, including developing empathy, responsibility, gentle hands, patience, curiosity and an understanding of how to care for living things.

These everyday moments spark conversations, connection and wonder, and of course, lots of excitement from the children!

At Papilio Bundoora, we love creating warm, engaging environments where children can learn through real-life experiences. If you’d love your child to be part of our community, we’d love to welcome you for a tour. Enquire today! 🌿✨

Moments like these are so important in helping children build connections with their community and learn about the incredible people who help keep us safe 🚨

Families enjoyed massages, sweet treats from our infamous Chef Maree, especially her much-loved Biscoff cheesecake, nail and makeup experiences, DIY take-home lip balm, and a special raffle for everyone who attended.

These special events are such a lovely way to build community connection and create meaningful moments together.
