There’s nothing quite like Christmas at Keiki! 🎄✨
December has been full of festive fun at all our services – from cuddly animal farms and cookie decorating, to Christmas crafts, ornament making, face painting, carols, and of course, Christmas parties. Seeing the children’s joy, creativity, and kindness has made this season really special.

A huge thank you to our Keiki families and staff for all your generosity, time, and energy - it’s your support that makes this season so wonderful. Our staff work so hard every year to make this a magical time for the children, and we’re so grateful for everything they do.
Here’s to a merry end to 2025 and an exciting start to the new year! 🌟

KEIKI MINDARIE PRIMARY: Community connections & Christmas cheer 🎄💛
Last week, Keiki Mindarie Primary hosted their final Intergenerational Playgroup meet-up for the year! Now in its third year, this initiative is run in partnership with Harbourside Village Mindarie and supported by the Rotary Club of Joondalup, giving our preschool children the chance to build meaningful relationships across generations.
For our final session, the children and their friends from Harbourside Village made Christmas cards, beaded bracelets, created collages, enjoyed a festive Christmas party, and listened to a special story read by Centre Coordinator Jo.
It was such a joy to see our children practicing empathy, kindness, and conversation across generations.

KEIKI EDGEWATER: It’s a golden gumnut kind of Christmas 🔔🎅🏻
Christmas in Australia reminds us just how special our natural world is - from gum nuts being crunched by white cockatoos to bright banksias buzzing with bees, honey-eaters and rainbow lorikeets. Inspired by the beauty of the season, our pre-kindy educators created a native Australiana-themed Christmas table for the children to explore as we celebrate this magical time of year together.
This sensory experience invited the children to feel the soft, smooth playdough and create their own interpretation of Christmas. We love combining sensory play with natural materials because it nurtures curiosity, builds connection to the environment and helps children understand the world around them in a hands-on, meaningful way.
Adding items like beautiful gumnuts, red leaves and sticks brought another layer to their play. These open-ended materials spark imagination, encourage care for nature, and offer social moments to practise sharing and taking turns. It was wonderful to watch each child carefully choose their items and place them on their playdough with such purpose and pride. ❤🌱

KEIKI TRINITY: Big school visits! ✨🚌
A small group of children from our Trinity Kindy room were so excited to head off on an adventure to Alkimos Primary School earlier this month! Their journey began on the Keiki bus, with everyone safely buckled in and full of anticipation for the day ahead. 💛
When they arrived, the children were warmly welcomed into the school library, where they joined in with the Bumble Bees Pre-Kindy program. They engaged beautifully in a range of tabletop experiences and enjoyed story time with Hannah, showing wonderful listening skills and enthusiasm. 📚🐝
After their indoor session, they headed outdoors for a relaxed picnic in the garden. The children loved exploring the space, connecting with new friends, and engaging in outdoor play. 🌿
This visit was a fantastic opportunity for our kindy children to build confidence in a new environment and strengthen Keiki`s growing connections with the Alkimos Primary School community. 🤝🏫✨

KEIKI TAPPING: Nature is our playground!
At Keiki Tapping, our children are building a strong connection to nature and learning what it means to care for their environment every day. Here are just a few of the nature experiences we`ve enjoyed over the past few weeks… 🌿✨
Our Keiki Clean-Up Crew has been exploring our green spaces, collecting any rubbish they find and sorting it into the correct bins. These moments have sparked wonderful conversations about recycling, keeping our environment clean, and making sustainable choices in everyday life. ♻️
Our little explorers have also loved heading out on nature treasure hunts around the kindy playground - searching for flowers, twigs, leaves, sand, wood chips and more to fill their recycled egg cartons.
On hot days, the children love to take responsibility for watering the plants in our Keiki garden, taking pride in watching them grow and thrive. And of course, there’s been plenty of creative nature play too, including making magical potions with recycled flowers. 💐
All these experiences weave together to show the children’s growing sense of responsibility and care for the natural world around them. 🌏❤

One of our favourite Keiki traditions is our end of year kindy graduations. Each year, our services host a beautiful ceremony to celebrate our older children as they get ready to take the big step from Keiki to big school. It marks a special final milestone in our Keiki Preschool Program and reflects our dedication to preparing little ones for this exciting transition. 🎓❤️
In the weeks leading up to the big day, the children prepare by practicing their songs, learning how to collect their certificates and gifts, and trying on a little graduate robe and hat. On graduation day, we welcome our kindy families into the service to share in the celebration, and it’s always an event filled with pride, joy and a few happy tears!
Graduation is a truly special moment to honour each child’s growth throughout their Keiki journey and prepare them for the changes ahead. Huge congratulations to our Keiki graduating class of 2025 and their families - it has been a privilege to watch the children grow, and we’re cheering them on as they begin this beautiful new chapter. 🌱☺

KEIKI MINDARIE KEYS: Bus to big school! 🍎🚌
Last week, a small group of our kindy children took an exciting step in their transition to school journey with a visit to Mindarie Primary School! This special excursion gave them the chance to explore their future big school, meet their new kindy teachers and enjoy a play-based session in the school library.
Travelling on the Keiki bus added to the excitement, and the children loved engaging with the activities thoughtfully set up for them. Experiences like this help build confidence, familiarity and a sense of belonging as children begin picturing themselves in their new environment.
School visits are a key part of our Keiki Preschool Program, helping children build the emotional, social and physical skills they need to feel confident and ready for their big transition to big school! 🌱☺

KEIKI HAMERSLEY: Flower magic in the making 🌸🪄
The kindy children at Keiki Hamersley have been absolutely loving their potion making lately! Last week, educators set up a beautiful summery themed potion table outside using flowers freshly picked from our Room Leader Ruth’s garden.
With bowls of petals, leaves, coloured water and plenty of scoops, jugs and mixing tools, the children experimented freely - combining ingredients, exploring colour changes, and proudly sharing their “magic potions” with friends and educators.
Potion tables are always rich with language as children describe what they’re creating, negotiate roles and talk through their ideas. They also provide plenty of opportunities for social skill building - taking turns, collaborating and problem-solving together. And while it all feels like pure fun, potion play is also packed with early numeracy concepts, including measuring, comparing, estimating and noticing how ingredients change when combined. 🫗🍃

KEIKI GLENDALE: Meet the lovely Chantelle! 🌿
Say hello to Chantelle, our wonderful Centre Coordinator at Keiki Glendale. Originally from Canberra, she made the move to Perth in 2023 and has been a much-loved part of the Keiki family for the past year. Working towards a Diploma in Children’s Services (ECEC) and with experience in early childhood education dating back to 2018, she brings a beautiful mix of calm, confidence, and genuine care to our Glendale community.
Chantelle’s approach fits perfectly with Keiki’s philosophy.

Outside of work, you’ll likely find Chantelle with a book in hand, soaking up the sunshine at the beach, or relaxing with her two cats, Luna and Lulu.
