🌿 Templestowe Valley Preschool Open Day 🌿

We’re excited to share that Templestowe Valley Preschool is opening its doors this Saturday 2nd May, 9:30–11:00am — and families are warmly invited to come along!

📍 3 Birchwood Ave, Templestowe Lower
🎨 Face painting will be available for the children!

This is a beautiful local kinder we are proud to be partnering with — a calm, welcoming space with incredibly dedicated educators.

💛 Why families choose Templestowe Valley Preschool:
• A beautiful natural garden that invites exploration, calm and rich play
• Strong, established relationships with local primary schools, supporting confident transitions
• Flexible programming, including an ongoing 5-hour option alongside longer day programs
• A dedicated, long-standing team, with some educators supporting families across generations
• A highly engaged Parents’ Association that builds strong community connection
• A quiet, off-main-road location creating a safe and peaceful environment
• An embedded child safety and advocacy program (KidsROAR) supporting children and families
• Genuine partnerships with local schools, including e-safety sessions, library visits, and STEM/art experiences
• An upcoming in-house playgroup strengthening connection from the earliest years

If you’re in the area, it’s a lovely opportunity to explore the space, meet the educators, and feel the community spirit firsthand. 🌱

Playgroup is more than just play, it’s where confidence, connection, and early communication begin.

We’re so excited to be collaborating with Templestowe Valley Preschool to support their playgroup community this year.

Through this partnership, Little Birds will be offering incursions, shared learning opportunities, and ongoing collaboration to help strengthen connections between families and the preschool environment.

Why playgroup matters:
• Builds early social and communication skills
• Supports kinder readiness and overall development
• Supports smoother transitions into kinder
• Creates a sense of belonging for both children and families
• Encourages learning through play in a safe, supported space

Our goal is simple: to walk alongside families and educators, building confidence, connection in our local community.

This playgroup is currently open via EOI (Expression of Interest) only.

More to come as we get started. We can’t wait to share this journey.

If you’re interested, please register by emailing: templestowevalley@ecms.org.au

Feel free to share with anyone who might benefit .

Celebrating our April birthdays at Little Birds 🎂🐥

It’s the people that make our clinic what it is and we’re so grateful for the kindness, passion, and energy you bring to the team every day 💛

Here’s to another year of making a difference (and celebrating the little wins along the way ✨)


27/04/2026

✨ MiniTown Explorer is almost here!

We’re finalising all the details and getting everything ready for an incredible hands-on learning experience for little explorers 🌿🏙️

We can’t wait to bring this to life with you all 💛

When you bring a bunch of allied health clinicians together for a “wellbeing day”…
you get ✨deep insights✨ like:

Who’s the most competitive?
Who’s most likely to hit someone?
Who is not going to follow the rules?👀

Safe to say… we learnt a lot about each other (and maybe unlocked some unexpected personalities 😂)

Days like this matter.
Not just for fun, but for connection, culture, and the little moments that make a team feel like a team 💛

Dearest gentle reader… ✨
It is with great pleasure that we share a glimpse into a most delightful gathering — Pickle & Chirp 🕊️

A day where the Little Birds team stepped away from the clinic and into connection, movement, and a little friendly competition…

From a heart-pumping HIIT session 💪
To some very serious pickleball rallies 👀
And of course… the most delicious spread to finish 🍓

Because at Little Birds, we believe that supporting our team’s wellbeing and nurturing genuine connection is just as important as the work we do every day.

A team that feels good, works well together 💫

And one thing is certain…
there were some very competitive players on that court 👀🏓

What looks like “just a bag”… is actually a whole session, intentionally designed 🧠✨

At Little Birds, every group session is carefully structured to support learning across multiple contexts, because that’s how skills truly stick.

Inside each session bag, you’ll find:
→ A clear goal
→ A structured sequence
→ Activities, books, songs, and play-based materials

But more importantly, how we use them matters.
Our sessions typically flow like this:
✨ Explicit teaching (clear, direct instruction)
✨ Story/third-person learning (safe space to explore and discuss)
✨ Structured practice (guided support)
✨ Unstructured play (real-life generalisation)

Because learning isn’t just about doing it once — it’s about experiencing it in different ways, across different contexts.

That’s the magic happens 💫


20/04/2026

We love our kids… we really do… 😅

But also, HAPPY TERM 2 EVERYONE 🙌🎉
Welcome back!

Sincerely,
Little Birds mums who can finally hear themselves think again 💛

BTS of group sessions 👀
What looks like simple play on the surface is actually a lot of intentional planning behind the scenes.

From defining the purpose of the group, to choosing the right activities that support skill development and generalisation, every detail is thought through.

Then comes organising all the resources (and double checking you didn’t forget anything 😅).

A lot more goes into it than people realise!

Anyone else relate?

“Okay, let’s turn this chaos into something organised 👀”

If you’ve ever run group sessions, you know the behind-the-scenes can feel like pure chaos 😅

Hot tip 👇
✨ Go “grab and go”

✔️ One bag per session
✔️ Smaller bags inside (goals, activities, books, instructions)
✔️ Clear bags = you can see everything instantly

No more scrambling. No more last-minute stress.
Just grab your bag and go 🙌

Game changer.
