AKG Awards 2021
Earlier this month Active Kids Group celebrated the year and their achievements at their annual Christmas party. We were proud to award multiple child care educators who display AKG’s mission and values as educators. This year we also celebrated the highest amount of length of service awards for some special employees who have spent many years at our child care centres. Some notable award recipients that we would like to mention:

We got to end the year by celebrating with the wonderful men and women we talk to most everyday, but this year we haven’t had a chance to see many at our child care centres. We’d like to thank all the staff and coordinators at our day cares for all their hard work. It has been wonderful to see every work together and we are excited to welcome new faces to the Active Kids Group Family in the new year.

End of Year Celebrations at Thumbelina Child Care
Thumbelina is a child care centre in Edgecliff that has been educating children under Active Kids Group since 2010. Thumbelina has a strong community connection and ensures all families and their children feel safe and secure and have a sense of belonging throughout their Early Childhood journey.
This day care is divided over 3 levels and the children have designated areas for both indoor and outdoor play. We believe that incursions, excursions and extra-curricular activities are an integral part of educating the children and developing each child’s broader understanding of the world around them.
Our AKG learner’s at Thumbelina child care centre celebrated the end of this year with their fellow learners, educators and families. They had a picnic spread, face painting and an exciting visit from Santa!
Gianny, our service coordinator at Thumbelina had this to say: The children and their families are often with us for many years as two or more siblings will attend the day care centre. This means the parents are well known by all the staff and feel like a part of the Thumbelina Family, which makes these end of year celebrations even more important for our families.
You can check out the end of year celebrations at our Thumbelina Child Care Centre by visiting our Facebook Post.

Be Inspired at Active Kids Newtown
Active Kids Newtown is a child care centre located in the busy suburb of Newtown, about a 10 minute walk from Newtown train station. At our child care in Newtown, we are committed to providing the ideal early learning curriculum and learning environment for every child.
At Active Kids Group, our child care play-based program focuses on using the children’s interest and strengths to scaffold on their learning. At our day care in Newtown, we believe that school readiness starts from the nursery. Play based early education provides opportunities to continuously cultivate the social skills during play time and to create and maintain friendships.
Here at Active Kids Newtown, we aim to open the door to the wonder and excitement of learning, discovering and exploring. We believe this is depicted throughout the whole child care centre, from our open play spaces and extraordinary mural painting, to our educators inspiring each and every child to follow in their interests.
With families as our primary day care partner, we nurture a love of learning. We actively seek the participation of all families in Sydney to become involved in all our events which reflect the surrounding communities and families within our child care centre. We encourage community networking and building relationships with other families at the early learning centre.
We also hold fundraising events to support numerous causes such as The Bandaged Bear Appeal, The Big Red BBQ and The Pink Ribbon Breakfast amongst others. Our pre-schoolers connect with the community and go on excursions to the local library, shops and parks twice a week.
