Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to say hey and introduce myself, my name is Sarah and this week i'm starting my Certificate III in Children's Services :) I will be doing my placement at my daughter's Kindergarten and next year i hope to get the Kindergarten Assistant position that will become available :) I am 31 and haven't studied for many years and i'm quite nervous to say the least :sweating: ! I'm doing my course online and i'm hoping i'll be able to make it through within 6 months, i would love to get to know some of you !

Sarah :)

Good on you Sarah80 for starting your study. Once you get used to studying again I am sure you will love it! It took me a couple of units to find my feet but then I found I went well. Kindy is a great place to work and there is nothing better than spending your day with the littlies!! What state are you in?

Welcome Sarah I'm sure you will get lots of assistance from ppl on here. Good luck with the studies, once you have a few units under your belt you will find your study feet and method and it will be a breeze from there

I returned to childcare after 5yrs from not working in it, Than took on my Diplma last year. So Sarah if I can do it as a FT assistant and mum of 3 you can do this :) Just find your way of studying and go for it. If your heart is set on 6months to have it done you will find a way GOOD LUCK
