Little Giants Auburn
Our beautiful Auburn centre is located at 33 Cornwall Rd, providing easy access for families. Renovated from an existing centre, is our purpose built, airconditioned, 5 room Early Education Centre with an additional art studio. We are committed to achieving excellence in every area of our service. We believe deeply in the power of learning as the ignition switch to building a culture that lives and breathes this mission. Learning transforms not only the individual but also those around, igniting a spirit of change. A partnership between what we once knew and what we now know begins to influence the way we move forward. It is said that “learning is a consequence of thinking” and as such we cultivate a rich climate of reflective practice and forward thinking.

By creating a diverse environment for children, families and community we strengthen the spirit of dialogue and collaboration. Learning is a cycle of inquiry that is driven by a curiosity and desire. It involves questioning, investigating, researching, evaluating and building on what we already know or do. Learning takes time, patience, persistence and willingness. We strive to inspire the positive foundations and mindset of a life-long learner within every child.

We endeavor to empower our children, our families, our teams and our community in ways that motivate and inspire excellence in early childhood education and care. Please contact the Centre Manager – Adibeh on 96438811 or email her at auburn@littlegiants.edu.au

Hearty Health
Book Week is coming up in the Child Care Calendar and there is no better time to help encourage healthy eating habits in children than by reading a good book about it! 

Here are our top 3 recommendations for Book Week in 2018 which focus on health eating:

We Are What We Eat– by Kristy Hammil- According to the description, “Your kids will start to recognize the difference between foods that are nourishing to their bodies and foods that aren’t.”  Great for kids 2-10 years old.

Berenstain Bears and Too Much Junk Food by Stan and Jan Berenstain.  Mama and Dr. Grizzly attempt to help their children understand the importance of nutritious foods and exercise.

Gregory the Terrible Eater by Mitchell Sharmat –  Gregory is a goat that only eats fruits, vegetables, bread and butter.  This disappoints his parents because they wish he would eat tires, shoelaces, tin cans, and cardboard.  The kids think it’s hilarious!

Hearty Health are passionate about providing fresh seasonal meals to children in child care which are delivered directly to child care centre fridges every day.  

Contact Hearty Health at www.heartyhealth.com.au or 1300 728 762 to book a tasting of our delicious menu that your kids will love.

Robert A Emmons, social scientist and the author of ‘Gratitude Works’, has been studying the science of gratitude for many years. Called the ‘world expert’ on Gratitude by Berkeley University in California, Emmons has completed countless studies involving thousands of people aged between 8-80 around the benefits of gratitude and how it works to definitely increase our feelings of contentment with life, when it comes to the past, present or the future.

His Clinical Trials indicate that the practice of gratitude can have dramatic and lasting effects in a person’s life. It can lower blood pressure, improve immune function, promote happiness and well-being and incite acts of helpfulness, generosity and cooperation.

Gratitude is defined as ‘A felt sense of wonder, thankfulness, and appreciation for life’. It ‘Helps us savour our positive experiences’.

Let’s face it, as we…….. (Read more of this article here ………)
