Imagine having your only relief educator 300 kilometres away. Or having to wait weeks for your next order of paints to arrive. Imagine never having seen another early childhood service, or needing to make a 12-hour round trip to attend your nearest professional development opportunity. How about crocodiles a few yards from the centre or hundreds of green tree frogs on your glass sliding doors, with dinosaur fossils lying around for the picking only a short excursion away? In north-western Queensland these are the sorts of challenges and opportunities that early childhood education and care (ECEC) services face every day.
