Coastal Kids Childcare & Kindy

3 years ago our beautiful Miss Jess was diagnosed with breast cancer 3 weeks after her 4th baby boy was born. Jess has been an absolute trouper and has been fighting hard ever since. Recently Miss Jess has had a set back as the cancer has now spread to her liver. She is currently undergoing extensive chemo treatment and in true Jess style fighting hard while staying so positive and strong for her beautiful family.

Today our Coastal Kids crew did their first group walk for our August “Steps for Jess”. Our first group which included our Miss Jess walked an amazing 10km! While our second group did a 2km walk bringing it home with the rest of the group.

We are walking this August to raise awareness and much needed funds to help Miss Jess and her family. All donations will be going directly Miss Jess and her family.

Thank you all for your support!

What an amazing day our Kindergarten rooms had at the Taranganba State School's Under 8's Day!

The children enjoyed a variety of fun activities, including a delightful petting zoo, exciting emergency services displays, Bunnings pot planting, engaging sensory activities, and so much more! 🐾🚒🌱🎨

Coastal Kids provided a wonderful bag decorating activity, which all the children absolutely loved. Their beautifully decorated bags were perfect for holding all their wonderful crafts from the day. 👜✨

Thank you to Taranganba State School and everyone who made this day so memorable! 💖

🌿 Over the past two weeks, Coastal Kids Yeppoon and Emu Park have come together to celebrate NAIDOC Week, embracing the rich culture, history, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Our Kindy room's buzzed with excitement during a special bush tucker tasting, where little explorers delighted in new flavours and experiences. 🌱✨

We’re proud to provide meaningful opportunities for our kids to connect, learn, and grow through beautiful activities that honour Indigenous heritage.

🌟 This week, our pre-kindy kids explored the vibrant concepts from the NAIDOC poster, igniting their creativity and knowledge of the artwork through provocation! 🎨✨ They used colours and forms to express their understanding and connection to culture. Each piece reflected their imaginative spirit! 💖

A beautiful beginning for NAIDOC Week for our Coastal Kids Educators who were lucky to experience the Neon Corroboree from the Warama Cultural Group, and it was truly unforgettable!
The event was absolutely stunning, full of powerful storytelling, vibrant neon lights, and a true celebration of culture. From the breathtaking Neon Corroboree ceremony to the hands-on workshop, we’ve come away with so much knowledge and appreciation for the rich traditions shared with us.
This experience has enriched our understanding of traditions and inspired our team to continue exploring and learning, motivating us to seek out new opportunities for cultural immersion and education in the future.
