Dear Parents and Caregivers,
Rainbow Corner Child Care response to COVID-19.
As we face constantly changing circumstances related to COVID-19, we’d like to update you on the steps we have taken and are taking to ensure we are able to provide you and your children with continued exceptional care.
There’s a lot of things that are unknown at the moment, but we can assure you that Rainbow corner is committed to being a constant, reliable safe centre to support the best possible care for your children and your family.
We continue to take advice from Queensland Health and the Queensland Department of Education (the Early Childhood Regulatory Authority) in relation to this matter and the latest information is available at novel coronavirus (COVID-19) on the Queensland Health website.
Our Educators have been trained in COVID-19 infection control.
Our service has resumed our wonderful extra classes for the children, these include Cooking, Yoga, Sports and movement, Auslan sign language and Music.
On Tuesday we also have Billy's Buddies at the centre, you can enrol for this program on their website.
There are numerous resources available to support children through this time, please see below:
