Mary Thomasson

Mary Thomasson

Early Childhood Teacher

About Me ~ Mary

Hello, Iโ€™m Mary, an experienced Early Childhood Teacher with 16 years in the profession. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working in various positions within Early Education, including Nominated Supervisor. However, my true passion lies in early childhood education. This is my third year as a Kindergarten Teacher, and I look forward to many more rewarding years in this role.

In 2023, I achieved a significant milestone by graduating with my Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood and Primary) and becoming a provisionally registered teacher in Queensland. I am excited to bring my skills, knowledge, and enthusiasm to My School Child Care & Kindergarten - Park Avenue, Rockhampton, where I am dedicated to supporting childrenโ€™s development, fostering their love of learning, and helping them build a strong foundation for their future.

My Teaching Philosophy
At My School Child Care & Kindergarten, I strongly believe in creating secure, respectful, and reciprocal relationships with each child. These connections are fundamental for children to feel safe and develop a sense of belonging, which motivates their love for attending Kindergarten every day.

I am passionate about designing inspiring and challenging learning environments, both indoors and outdoors, that cater to each childโ€™s unique strengths, interests, and needs. Using open-ended loose parts in my teaching, I provide children with endless opportunities to engage, experiment, and investigate. This approach encourages creativity, imagination, and problem-solving, focusing on the process of learning rather than the product.

Embracing Diversity and Culture
In my teaching, I strive to embed Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives into my planning, learning environments, and pedagogy. I believe it is essential to honour every Australian childโ€™s right to learn about the rich histories, knowledge systems, cultures, and languages of Australiaโ€™s First Nations peoples.

Child-Centred Learning
Understanding that every child has different intrinsic motivations, I ensure they have the autonomy to choose where and how they want to learn. My approach prioritises high-quality, innovative, and play-based learning, incorporating opportunities for children to take risks, develop independence, and build essential life skills. I view each child as capable, competent, and full of potential.

Through my work, I advocate for childrenโ€™s rights, teaching them to recognise and voice their own needs while respecting others. I am committed to fostering independence and agency in every child, helping them gain confidence and skills that will serve them throughout their lives.

Building Connections
At My School Child Care & Kindergarten - Park Avenue, Rockhampton, I recognise the importance of building strong connections with children and their families. Relationships are the foundation of successful learning experiences, and I take the time to understand each childโ€™s individuality. By differentiating my teaching methods, I ensure that every child feels included and supported, celebrating the diversity that makes each of us unique.

I also model positive relationships, helping children navigate friendships and resolve conflicts effectively. My goal is to create a nurturing, inclusive space where every child can flourish emotionally, socially, and academically.

Looking Forward
It is an honour to be part of your childโ€™s early learning journey. I am excited to meet all the wonderful children and families at our centre and to work together to create a joyful, enriching experience for your child. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about our centre, please feel free to reach out to me or stop by for a visit.

Issabella Jephcott

Issabella Jephcott

Early Childhood Educator

Hello, my name is Issabella, and Iโ€™ve always known that I wanted to be an Early Childhood Educator. Growing up as the eldest of three children, I naturally found myself helping out and guiding younger kids โ€” whether it was at home or by supervising and running activities for our kidsโ€™ church group. Through those experiences, I discovered my true passion for early childhood education. ๐ŸŒˆโœจ

In 2025, I proudly completed my Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care, and Iโ€™m excited to continue learning and growing alongside the experienced team at My School Child Care & Kindergarten โ€“ Park Avenue, Rockhampton. Every day brings a new opportunity to develop my skills and support children as they grow, explore, and become confident little individuals. ๐ŸŒป๐Ÿ’ซ

As an Educator, my goal is to create an environment where children feel safe, supported, and inspired to learn. I want them to be excited to come to the centre each day, to feel confident trying new things, and to understand that making mistakes is part of learning and growing. ๐Ÿ’•

I strive to build a space where children feel a strong sense of belonging, where they feel valued, cared for, and encouraged to share their interests, ideas, and cultures with their friends. Watching children learn about the world and about each other is one of the most rewarding parts of being an educator โ€” and Iโ€™m so grateful to be part of that journey. ๐Ÿงธ๐ŸŒŸ

Jacinta Hardiman

Jacinta Hardiman

Early Childhood Educator

Hi, my name is Jacinta, and I am proud to be an Early Childhood Educator at My School Child Care & Kindergarten in Park Avenue, Rockhampton. I am deeply passionate about providing the best possible education and care for every child. I believe that each child is unique, with their own strengths, interests, skills, abilities, and knowledge. As an educator, it is my responsibility to cherish, value, and help develop these qualities to their fullest potential. ๐ŸŒฑ

My Approach to Education ๐ŸŽ“
As an educator, I am dedicated to creating a safe, secure, and supportive environment where children feel empowered to explore, learn, and grow. I encourage and support children to seek, share, and develop innovative ideas, thoughts, questions, and solutions both independently and with others. This approach helps foster their social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development, allowing them to become confident, curious, and engaged learners.

I strongly believe that every child should have the opportunity to reach their full potential, and I am committed to helping them achieve that through meaningful learning experiences. ๐Ÿ“šโœจ

The Importance of Collaboration ๐Ÿค
I firmly believe that strong partnerships with families and fellow educators are essential in supporting each childโ€™s individual needs. By working closely with parents and families, I aim to ensure that we meet the unique needs and interests of every child. Together, we can create a consistent and nurturing environment that allows children to flourish, both at school and at home.

I am always open to conversations with families to ensure we provide the best possible care and education for your child. ๐Ÿกโค๏ธ

My Belief in Play-Based Learning ๐ŸŽจ
Play is at the heart of how I approach early childhood education. I incorporate play-based learning into daily activities because it nurtures creativity, imagination, and problem-solving skills. I find that children thrive when learning is engaging and fun, and play provides the perfect platform for them to develop essential skills naturally.

By making learning enjoyable and playful, I believe children can grow into resilient, adaptable individuals who embrace new challenges with confidence. ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿงธ

My Commitment to the Future ๐ŸŒ
I believe that young minds are the foundation of the future. By providing children with the best education now, we are opening doors to endless opportunities for their tomorrows. Being part of their journey and helping to shape their love of learning is an incredibly rewarding experience for me. Every step of the way, I strive to help each child become a confident and capable individual.

I look forward to continuing to support your childโ€™s growth and development with love, care, and dedication. ๐ŸŒˆ๐ŸŒฑ
