Happy Father’s Day to our wonderful CFLC community!

Today, we celebrate the people who love, guide, encourage and care for the children in their lives — dads, stepdads, grandfathers, carers and all those special father figures.
We know every family looks different, and we celebrate the special relationships that help children feel loved, safe and supported.

To all the incredible father figures in our CFLC community — thank you for all that you do. Happy Father’s Day!

Happy Early Childhood Educator’s Day!

Today we want to take a moment to celebrate and thank our Education Officer, Cara, for all that she brings to our CFLC community.

There are so many people in our team who contribute to the learning, growth and wellbeing of the children we share, but Cara holds a very special role in helping us all to be the best educators we can be. Through her knowledge and guidance, she keeps children’s play, learning and development at the heart of all that we do.

Cara, thank you for the care you show our children, the encouragement you give our team, and the passion you bring to early learning every day. Your work makes such an important difference to the experiences we create for children and families. Thank you for everything you do to help make our CFLC a place where children can learn, wonder, play and thrive.✨
