Service and Educational Leader

Liz

Hello, I’m Liz, the Service leader at Rosewood Downs Uniting Kindergarten. I’m also the early childhood teacher in the Koala room.

I’ve worked in this sector since 2006, where I have undertaken numerous studies relating to early childhood learning and development. I’m an advocate for supporting the rights of children to be heard, valued and celebrated.

As a teacher and the service leader, I am passionate about children’s social and emotional development. As this lays the foundation that enables children to reach their full potential, while setting them up for success in the future.

Here at Rosewood Downs Kinder, the team and I create a positive culture that promotes the rights, strengths and interests of all children so they may feel safe and confident to learn, grow and thrive.

We look forward to supporting you and your child prepare for the school years ahead.

Health and wellbeing

Mental health

Our educators are trained in various programs to support the mental health of your child and are skilled in working with children who have experienced challenges and trauma. We can also refer to mental health support programs for families if you find yourself in need of assistance. 

Nutrition

Your child will learn about good nutrition to form healthy eating habits. We do this by growing fruit, vegetables and herbs in our centre garden. We also teach food safety practices. We respect and follow culturally appropriate food guidelines as we educate the children about healthy eating and nutrition.

Safe environment

As a child safe organisation, our educators undergo regular working with children’s and police checks. We are focused on delivering learning and development in a safe and supportive environment, so you can trust that your child is in good hands.
