KEIKI EDGEWATER: Playing and learning together in Harmony 🧡
Keiki Edgewater came alive with wonderful experiences during Harmony Week, as children were inspired through the sharing of their many different cultures!
The Nursery children incorporated St Patrick’s Day, exploring flags from different parts of Ireland and enjoying green-themed art and sensory play experiences. They also enjoyed outdoor painting and explored an orange sensory tray filled with bubbles and other items, while our Babies explored the cultures of earth using orange sand, play dough and flags from around the world. Toddlers discovered all about an Educator`s Māori culture, creating their own Kour, a symbol of a loop or coil that represents new life. They also enjoyed a playdough experience, making faces using mirrors while talking about how we are all different and unique.
The Pre-Kindy children worked together in painting a colourful backdrop with the words Harmony Week on it to hang it in their room, and Educators shared their culture with different experiences and making food such as French-inspired crepes for afternoon tea. The Kindy Room created their own Harmony Week crowns and decorated them with colourful human figures, symbolising the different counties they represent. They also read stories about inclusion and diversity, which was a great opportunity for the children to learn about accepting, appreciating and celebrating our differences. One of our children summarised the real essence of Harmony Week perfectly, saying “We can all be friends, we can all play together”. 🫶

KEIKI MINDARIE KEYS - Containers creating change ♻️
The kindy children at Keiki Mindarie Keys recently took their containers to the recycling depot in Clarkson for an engaging learning experience! After an exciting trip in the Keiki bus, they took turns at the machine to drop the bottles on the belt, learning about what materials can be recyled and reused. They loved collecting the money afterwards, which will be donated to the Red Nose Foundation to help fund important research and save little lives. ❤️
Thank you to all our families and staff for donating your eligible containers! If you would like to donate your bottles and cans, please drop them in to us on Anchorage Drive Mindarie 😊

HARMONY WEEK 2025 🌎
Harmony Week has a very special celebration at Keiki, and we are proud to welcome educators and families from so many different cultural backgrounds in our services. Each Harmony Week we invite our families and educators to share their culture and traditions as a way to promote shared understanding and to highlight the beauty in our diversity.
The children at all of our Keiki services were invited to participate in a range of experiences centered around Harmony Week! Some of the highlights included:
🧡 Special Harmony Week activities, crafts and meaningful discussions about the people and cultures that make up our world at Keiki Tapping.
🧡 One of our Keiki Mindarie Keys mums kindly shared her morning and her culture with the children at Mindarie Keys, where they learned to make authentic roti bread and had the opportunity to try on traditional Indian clothing.
🧡At Keki Hamersley, children created beautiful floral offerings with educator Ayu while learning about the meaning behind this Indonesian tradition. Educator Ruth also bought in a hand-made maypole for the children to dance around, just like she used to when she was little!
By championing the different cultures that exist in our community, we promote greater understanding, empathy and empowerment in our little ones as they learn all about the world around them. 🫶

Every year, we honour our Keiki Crew members who reach the incredible milestone of 10 years with us, and this time, we’re thrilled to welcome Tayla from Keiki Mindarie Keys to the club! 👏
Tayla started as a casual Educator in 2015 while completing her Diploma and has since become a beloved part of our team. She’s worked across all rooms, building strong relationships with children, families, and staff. Now a busy mum of two, she balances part-time work, family, and sports while bringing her warmth and expertise to the Mindarie Keys Toddler Room. 💛
To celebrate, Tayla joined owner Sam and our amazing 10-year-plus Keiki Crew -Nicole, Tracy, Ruth, Kym, Jo, Laura and Rhubie - for a well-deserved high tea at TWR Crown Towers, followed by a relaxing afternoon by the pool. 🌸☕
A huge thank you to all our incredible long-term staff for your dedication and passion! 💖

KEIKI MINDARIE KEYS – Having a berry good time at Basils 🍓
The children at Mindarie Keys went on a mission last week to forage for their own afternoon tea! A group of the Kindy children and their educators walked to their neighbours at @basilsfinefoods in Mindarie to select the best berries, plums, apples, melons and bananas for their afternoon fruit salad.
They carefully pored over each piece of fruit and took great pride in the process of choosing food for themselves and their friends. They even experimented with fruits they don’t often have, and really enjoyed patting the fuzzy hair of a kiwi fruit and taste testing the different plums on offer – there were a few faces after trying the sour ones! On their return to Keiki, the children handed Chef Lee all the fruits that they had bought for him to prepare. 🛒
Experiences that give children a sense of autonomy and ownership are so important in early childhood. They help grow children’s confidence, encourage responsibility for their actions and develop problem-solving and teamwork skills (as well as being just plain fun). The end result was a very yummy, very pretty fruit salad that all of the Kindy children got to enjoy! 🍇

CENTRE COORDINATOR SPOTLIGHT: Meet the lovely Ruth! 💚
Ruth has been a much-cherished member of the Keiki Mindarie Keys family for almost 15 years. In that time, she has overseen the care of hundreds of little ones in her previous role as Room Leader and now as Centre Coordinator.
Anyone who has met Ruth knows she was born to care for children. She is incredibly warm and knowledgeable and shows genuine care and interest in every single family that comes through her service. She does all this while also being an effective Educational Leader and mentor of the Keiki Mindarie Keys educators and staff under her supervision, always cheering them on and supporting them in providing the best care possible. 🙌🏼
When she’s not greeting you at the front desk of Mindarie Keys, Ruth is somewhat of a social butterfly in her local Mindarie neighbourhood. She also loves to spend time with her family including an adorable baby granddaughter.
Thank you for all you do Ruth! 🥹

KEIKI EDGEWATER – Having a ball with Tex! 🐶
Some of the prekindy children at Edgewater brought in photos of their animals from home, and an interest in pets began to emerge. Part of the Keiki curriculum is to listen and engage with the interests of each individual child in our care, and so to further this interest the educators organised a very special visit…
Our Edgewater 2IC, Katie, brought in her gentle giant Tex! Tex has years of experience with young children in a childcare setting, and his friendly, gentle and calm nature has made him an instant favourite with the children and educators alike. The children were offered the opportunity to pet him, offer a cuddle or simply admire from afar, and they have all been so kind in their interactions with Tex, showing him lots of respect and love. 💕
Interacting with animals can provide improved emotional regulation as well as fostering an early sense of empathy, compassion and responsibility in our little ones. Tex’s visits have been so popular with the children and families at Edgewater that they have become a regular occurrence, with Tex even celebrating his milestone 10th birthday with his Keiki Edgewater family. 🦴

KEIKI International Women’s Day 2025 💜
We have had so much fun celebrating International Women’s Day in our services this past week! The official colour of the day is purple, and our educators and children got right into the spirit with lots of purple outfits (even a Freo dockers jersey!), inspiring play set ups and thoughtful discussions about the influential women in their lives.
Children across our services read books about women and girls doing big things, got artistic with purple-themed projects and brought in donations for our @sharethedignityaustralia drive. At Keiki we love getting the little ones involved in events like IWD to help inspire early awareness of the world and all the positive ways we can make in an impact in it. 💪
