Little Scholars Deception Bay North

I’m writing this review in hopes that no other parent and child experience what I had to experience with this centre. Unfortunately, I was told one thing and witnessed another. I was told they do lots of outdoor play, messy play and water play which is not the case when we did our play and stays. When we did our Second and Third play and stay we witnessed what really goes on at the centre. The centre itself is clean and new but unfortunately doesn’t meet the sun safety standards that most daycares meet. I was told that they have to tape off areas that are too hot and they have to take temperatures of the turf. Most of the outside area had limited to no sunshades. I was told that the kids are kept inside from 9:30am till 2pm and that they only do one planned activity that goes for 30 minutes. Overall there was no structure for the kids and they were stuck inside playing with the same toys. My auntie had to tell one of the educators that one of the kids was going to hurt themselves due to limited supervision. Every concern I had, had an excuse. I asked an educator about how much water play they do and was told they do heaps but she had only done three waterplay activities since being there in October. We witnessed kids standing at the front door screaming for all three play and stays and when talking to a staff member they stated it happens all the time. I’ve sent numerous emails in regards to being removed from Kindyhub and have heard nothing back. They also took two weeks payment even though we never started there but was enrolled. When I came in on the Monday, an educator asked me if I was there for a play and stay even though this would’ve been her first day at the centre. I called up on the Friday cancelling her enrolment as the centre was not for my daughter. Overall, I think this centre is falsely advertising What really happens there. I think the staff behind the desk were quite rude and could have been more accommodating to our situation.
