went along to meet the residents of Hammond Care recently. The kids couldn’t have had a better day if they tried, and we heard that the residents were just as smitten with the kids. This was such a hit we plan to do this again soon! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f72944728270f2b2f2c5dae/654440bc-e752-4ce4-9ecd-3d1d02cac65b/banana+water.jpg What We Do - Our Banana Water The children at preschool, along with their educators, have taken it upon themselves to start their own Banana water for the plants in the garden. We take some banana peels and make Banana Water out of it. The children have such a great time watering the gardens both at preschool and even at their own homes. Its so good for the garden, and anyone can do it! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f72944728270f2b2f2c5dae/b095e11a-caec-450d-8bd2-598696f23905/IMG_5057.jpg https://www.mhcps.org.au/testimonials daily 0.75 2023-05-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f72944728270f2b2f2c5dae/1607986377809-L4HOVYH6KSPGZQSQVNQA/IMG_3612.JPG Testimonials - Dear Sue and MHCPS Team, We’ve realised that with Sawyer being our youngest and last child, the preschool chapter in our family’s life is about to close. So we wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for the great influence you’ve been in our lives. We have always loved that you took an interest in our kids and got to know them. You understood our concerns and helped to ease Gill into first starting there in 2015 by talking to him about his favourite place - Nanny’s farm. You brought extra ‘treasures’ to sprinkle in the sandpit for Cherry and you understood Sawyer’s ‘grumpy face’ and his sneaky sense of humour. We loved that with a higher staff to child ratio, our kids had the time and attention from educators that they needed. We’ve loved the variety of music, books, nature, gardening and outdoor play that was included in the programs and, of course, the legendary sandpit! (the favourite for all our kids). In the process of teaching our kids you taught us as parents too. You taught us to eat veggie sticks! to use the terms ‘sometimes foods’ and ‘everyday foods’ and to ‘get what you get and not get upset’. You prompted us to seek help for kid’s speech problems before they became too ingrained (and for Cherry this is also influenced our decision to have her tonsils removed which ended up saving her from a chronic infection which had gone undetected!). And you became someone who knew our kids, who we could liaise with when making big decisions. We’ll be forever grateful for the day you sat Ray down and explained that you thought Cherry should wait another year before starting Kindergarten. We needed someone else to speak into that decision and we can see that she is so much better emotionally prepared and developed to handle all the pressures that school life brings. We can’t thank you enough. We hope MHCPS continues to thrive and care for our community’s children well into the future. Thank you so much for all the effort you put into making preschool a wonderful and important experience for kids and their families. Forever grateful, Alice https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f72944728270f2b2f2c5dae/1602036799785-O17PV51K5EWGYAH68QKC/IMG_0599.JPG Testimonials - “Thank you so much for being a massive part of Mia’s life!

My son has ASD and when we enrolled him the ladies have brought him our of his shell, through loving and nuturing environment, they were patient with him and despite them thinking they know my son’s little quirks to get him to engage…both my husband and I know he has them wrapped around his little finger.
