Ringwood Update, Friday May 2nd, 2025

Hello Families,

It’s been another fun-filled week here at Choklits Ringwood!

We’re definitely starting to feel the drop in temperature, brrrr! That time of year is here again, so it’s time to unpack those big jackets, gloves, and cosy hats to keep warm during our outdoor adventures.  Flu season is also approaching so why not book in with Dr. Chan for your child’s flu vaccination.  See below for further information.

Exciting news…

Choklits Activate is returning on Monday, 5th May with Emily!!  This is our  very own sports program which has been designed to introduce our early learners to the joy and fun of being physically fit and capable through age appropriate and skill focused experiences.  

Highlights from the week…

This week, we’ve kicked off our Mother’s Day Afternoon Tea preparations, and the excitement is buzzing! Each room has been getting crafty, creating heartfelt and unique art projects to spoil our amazing mums and special people. It’s been so lovely to see the joy, imagination, and love going into every piece.

Dear mums and special people, If you haven’t RSVP’d yet, don’t miss out! It’s happening next Friday at 3 PM, and we can’t wait to celebrate with you.

Our Birthday Box Mail has been a big hit with the children! They eagerly wait for their turn to collect a special birthday card lovingly made by their peers.

This simple but meaningful activity helps foster a deeper sense of belonging and strengthens their connections to the world around them. It’s beautiful to see the joy it brings and the friendships it helps grow.

We’ve also started dreaming big for our front garden area! We’re brainstorming ways to refresh and transform the space, and we’d love your ideas. Whether it’s big or small, your input matters, and we’d love to hear from you!

Thanks for being part of the Choklits family, here’s to another great week ahead!

Educator spotlight…

Big shout-out to Dom! We’re excited to welcome Dom, our new Maintenance and Grounds Manager, to the Choklits Team. Since day one, he’s gone above and beyond to keep our centre looking its best every single day.

Dom truly embodies the Choklits pillars, his communication, collaboration, and consistency have been outstanding. He’s not only made a big difference to our environment but has also been a fantastic support to the staff.

Thanks for everything you’re doing, Dom. We’re lucky to have you on the team!

Did you know…

Did you know we have an in-house doctor? Dr. Chan visits us every second Monday to provide convenient, on-site medical support for our little learners and staff.

He can assist with general check-ups, pre-prescriptions, flu vaccinations, and most importantly, help update and renew children’s action plans. Whether it’s for asthma, allergies, or other medical needs, having Dr. Chan on-site makes the process quicker and easier for families.

Take advantage of this great service, it’s here to support your child’s health and well-being!
