Childcare centre celebrates early education

Central Coast Council's childcare centre at Umina celebrated Early Childhood Education Week from August 7 to 11.

Council group leader Ms Julie Vaughan said the week's special program of events highlighted the service the centre provides to the community.

"The families who attend our childcare centres know we are passionate about providing a nurturing and inspiring environment in which children can play, learn and explore," she said.

Council administrator Mr Ian Reynolds said it was great to see the centre so actively involved in the local community.

"Council's education and care centres are all not-for-profit - which means you're getting your value for money," he said.

"Being a Council-run childcare centre, the centres work closely with other departments to give children in their care important tips on surf safety, recycling and road safety."
