Room to plan your program the way you think

You plan best when you can see the whole month and have space to think around it. This calendar gives every month of 2027 a dated calendar page, and three open dot grid pages for mind maps, photo collages, narratives, drawings and notes. If other planning templates leave little room for your own thinking, these pages give you that room.

•     A quote on some pages to start your thinking.

Plan big, together

Printed at A3, each page is large enough to spread across the table at a team meeting or pin to the learning environment wall. Some educators use the pages as a pin board, gathering ideas, illustrations and photos to show the team, and families, the vision for their room.

Capture what you learn at conferences and workshops, from books and podcasts, and in conversations with colleagues and mentors, all in one printable notebook. Print it at A4, or write on your iPad in Goodnotes or on your reMarkable.

Keep hold of what you learn

If you've come home from a conference full of ideas, and found a week later that the ones you meant to try had slipped away, this notebook is for you. It gives every learning moment a page, with space to note what you heard and reflect on what it means for your practice.

For everywhere you learn

Conferences, workshops and training days, while the ideas are fresh.

Books, chapters, professional articles and blog posts, so you can work through your thinking on paper.

Professional conversations with colleagues, mentors and coordinators.

Your mentors: the social media post you print and paste in, the TED talk or the podcast episode that challenged and broadened your thinking.

What you'll find inside

Professional Learning spreads for your notes and reflections on each event, conversation or resource. Write, sketch, mind map or mix all three.

Extra note pages for the conference days that need more room.

A record of your learning that builds across the year

As the pages fill, you build a record of the learning behind your individual learning and development plan (NQS Element 7.2.3). 
If you're a registered early childhood teacher, it also gives you a record of your professional learning to draw on when you renew your registration.

Plan each day, capture the learning and keep your reflections together in one fully dated 2027 diary. Print it at A4 or A5, or write straight onto your iPad in Goodnotes or on your reMarkable.

Every day of your year, planned and documented in one place

You plan, document and reflect every day. This diary gives all three a dated home for 2027. You get a page for every day of the year, open enough for the way you document: a mind map, a short narrative, photos with notes, or a blend that suits you, the children and their families.

This diary holds a full record of your thinking, ready for your next planning meeting, a conversation with families or an assessment and rating visit.

What you'll find inside

•     Monthly planning wheels, fully dated, for mapping the month's significant events, celebrations and professional learning around a single circle.

•     Team meeting pages for the discussions that happen in the room and at the staff meeting, so your team's decisions about the program stay on record.

•     A dated page for every day, where you document the day's events and learning in whatever style fits.

•     Reflective practice pages for your thinking on curriculum, teaching and learning, and the curriculum decisions your team discussed through the week. Over the year, these give you ongoing evidence of the critical reflection that drives your program planning (NQS Element 1.3.2).

•     Personal reflection and notes pages for everything else on your mind.

•     Sticky note pages for significant moments, so the notes that drift off your desk have somewhere to live.

Use it on paper, on your iPad or on your reMarkable

Print the pages at A4, or scale it to A5 for a diary you can carry with you. To lighten the load further, print it in sections with an extra cover on each, and bind two or four smaller books across the year.

If you prefer to write on a screen, open the PDF in Goodnotes on your iPad (our recommendation) or any PDF annotation app, or load it onto your reMarkable as a template, and write straight onto the pages.

Made for every early childhood setting

Whether you work in Long Day Care, Family Day Care, Preschool and Kindergarten or Outside School Hours Care, the layouts follow the way your week runs. Teachers and educational consultants designed them around the planning and documenting you already do.

Pair it with your journal

Use the diary on its own, or alongside the Reflections of an Educator Journal. The diary holds your planning and professional record, and the journal gives you a creative space for personal reflection.

A storybook that fills more than just time - it fills Cups.

Meet The Phoenix Five, the first-ever children’s book created to nurture Needs Literacy in young readers. More than a beautifully illustrated story, this unique book introduces children to a powerful truth: everyone has different needs, and those needs are important.

Inspired by the Phoenix Cups® Framework, each vibrant character embodies one of five essential human life needs - Safety, Connection, Freedom, Mastery, and Fun. As children journey alongside these characters, they begin to recognise their own needs and develop the language to express them.

Through engaging storytelling and play-based reflection, The Phoenix Five offers children (and the adults who care for them) a gentle, empowering introduction to understanding what they feel, what they need, and why it matters.

This is not just a story. It’s a starting point for lifelong wellbeing, emotional resilience, and compassionate self-awareness.


Written by Sandi & Christopher Phoenix, and Monica Millgate

Illustrated by Katherine Appleby

Summer Says:

Chicken expert, Summer Farrelly, is featured throughout the book in Summer Says info boxes. When Summer was 9 years old, she wanted to share how her chicken flock helped her understand social cues and situations. Being on the autism spectrum, she at times found social settings both challenging and confusing. Her chicken flock gave her a place to belong, help her build resilience, and accept who she is. Over the past few years she has achieved this and so much more.

THE EVOLUTION OF MISS GABBY

Not everyone’s first foray into film earns them a line that becomes a cultural phenomenon. “You’re terrible Muriel” has stamped Gabby Millgate into the Australian national consciousness. Gabby Has been quoted by Madonna, Will Ferrell and James Cordon.

In the years between filming and release of Muriel’s Wedding (1994), Gabby graduated from Charles Sturt University (BA Comm). ‘95-’99 Gabby starred in and wrote TV sketch comedy on Full Frontal and was invited to be the only comedian on Celebrity Big Brother. Other regular TV appearances included debates, panel and chat shows. Gabby has performed live in stand-up, cabaret and musicals. She has been the MC for corporate events and community events and festivals. 2006 Radio offered Gabby daily 4am starts, talking to everyone from truck drivers to the Prime Minister. Awards and nominations followed. Then Gabby’s sense of adventure took her to the outback, presenting Breakfast for ABC NWWA. Whilst living in the Aboriginal community of Roebourne, Gabby also taught in the Correctional Centre. Gabby formed intimate and influential relationships with the Ngarluma & Yindjibandi women during her time in Roebourne. It is here, in the driest, hottest part of Australia, Gabby learnt about chickens, edible gardens and sustainability from one of her listeners who was living off the grid-a wild human. With 20 years improvising under her belt with Sydney Theatresports, Gabby relishes the unexpected and spontaneous.

Gabby has taught improvisation and creativity workshops at Australia’s premier institutions;
NIDA, NSW Education Department, Sydney University and Charles Sturt University. During the reign of Australia’s first female Prime Minister, Gabby became a YouTube go-to as the UnReal Prime Minister of Australia with regular appearances on Sunrise, ACA, ABC24, 2UE, 2GB, MTR, 2DAYFM, MMM, FOX and ABCTV Comedy www.youtube.com/gabbymillgate. In 2012 Gabby retired from showbiz and found a new passion for life in Early Childhood Education becoming Miss Gabby. In this role Gabby combined her love and understanding of being a wild human in nature with her ability to advocate on behalf of children.

In 2017 Gabby became the first Nature Pedagogy Leader in the ACT presenting that same year at the Canberra Inspired EC Nature Pedagogy Conference along side Claire Warden. Her opening remarks were “What is the difference between a correctional facility and your childcare centre?”.

“My big passionate personal goal is to advocate for Nature Pedagogy in all Early Learning Centres.”
