Chermside Early Education Centre & Pre-school

I wouldn’t recommend sending your child here, after my experience in how they handle their educator not following their own behaviour guideline / interactions policy I’m now pulling my son out of daycare while the investigation regarding an educator redirecting my son with a big plastic spoon by using it on his stomach , this had been confirmed on CCTV no matter what “force” they’d like to claim it was enough for my son to say it hurt him. the educator is still working there with what seems to be no appropriate repercussions for “poking” “pushing” how ever they would like to explain it, my son in the stomach in the sandpit after asking him 4 times to stop something. It was more of a surprise that trying to get this handled correctly is become a massive struggle. Now another educator has spoken to a parent regarding my son’s incident claiming everything is safe and there’s no investigation which is incorrect the investigation is still on going. This educator who used a spoon to my son is “new” and now works with the babies which is a major concern and should be to any parent. When asking about an incident report they informed me it was only going to mention my son’s throwing sand and nothing about how the educator used a big plastic spoon to his stomach. So they were prepared to falsify their incident report to try and deflect responsibility. There has been no finalisation of the investigation notified to me so unsure as to how and why they’re saying this to other parents. Seems like one big sweep it up under the rug situation. Same as when my son was hospitalised due to not being supervised inside properly and managed to swallow a rock , he ended up going to hospital. They cleaned and hid the rocks for when the investigation happened , lucky I had taken a photo of them. Up until now I had no issues with this centre ,<br><br>miss courtney, miss Tati, miss Alana are all very amazing at their jobs and work extremely well with the kids. Especially for my son they were fantastic leaders, teachers and caring towards him<br><br>I will be continuing to handle this situation through a different authority as the centre only seems to care about their reputation and not the real well being of the kids. This has enraged me as a mother and I will be continually following up about this regardless if he does or doesn’t attend in the centre
