Hello, My name is Serena. I have been at CPELC since 2023. Working in the Coobaaroo room has been a pleasure.

 I completed my Diploma of Childhood Education with Holmesglen Institute of TAFE. 

My relationship with early childhood education comes from my grandmother, the director of a kindergarten in China. I often spent my school holiday time with her; her passion for working with young children influenced my growth. I strongly believe that childhood is not a race to see how quickly a child can read, write and count. Childhood is a small window of time for each child to learn and develop at the right pace. 

I have been at CPELC since 2022, my goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment where children feel secure and valued. 

​

I have worked at CPELC since 2023. I Completed my certificate III in early childhood whilst working at CPELC.. I have a creative and kind mindset which lead me to wanting to help educate children in their early stages of life. I love the imagination and happiness they beam with everyday, and love listening to how their little minds wander. In the future I am hoping to further study into kindergarten teaching in the hopes to share my creativity with others. I am currently loving my role at Columbia Park and am very grateful for the experience so far.

I have been working at CPELC since 2024. I completed  my certificate III in early childhood whilst working at CPELC. I am passionate about building relationships with children and families and embedding a calm and nurturing environment for all children to thrive in.
