Centre Procedures
What is the arrival and departure process like?

On arrival, parents must sign their child in and out of the Xplor app on their smartphone at one of the iPad hubs in the centre. In order to satisfy legislative requirements, it is required that attendance records accurately reflect a child’s attendance.
REMEMBER: Please apply sunscreen on your child’s exposed parts of the body before you arrive at the preschool and then make sure that your child joins in with the appropriate group. Please hand in any completed forms (eg. authority to administer medicine) or other bring-ins to a staff member.
Only authorised persons are allowed to pick up children from the centre. You can nominate these contacts on the Xplor enrolment form.
What is the sleep and rest procedure like?

Our services follow Safe Sleep Practices recommended by Red Nose, StayingHealthy in Childcare and the ACECQA. This program has successfully reduced the incidence of SIDS and fatal sleeping accidents in Australia by 80%, saving more than 9,000 little lives. For further information, please visit the Red Nose website.
How many meals will my child get?

How do you communicate with parents?

We use StoryPark for daily updates. Here, educators will record your child’s activities and progress through their learning journeys. It’s an app that provides parents and caregivers with live updates of what your children are up to. Storypark also allows parents to comment, share the child’s profile with friends and family, and to post their own stories of the experiences the child is having outside of preschool.
Sprout is a software we use for incident reports. We also provide you with updates on your child’s nappy changes and naps through the Xplor app.
