During the Summer Holidays was all about levelling up the fun at TheirCare Boroondara. The three weeks where an engaging and enriching experience for everyone involved in our program. Throughout the three weeks, we provided various learning environments daily including creative, physical health, scientific, experiential, natural, cultural, and two cooking experiences (each week) and excursions to the Timezone, Rivoli Cinemas, Glow Golf and Archery Attack. Each day was packed with exciting, fun and engaging experiences. During the first week, the highlights included making Butterfly, hosting our own Game Show, seeing Moana 2, Airbrush Octopus Art, playing Laser Tag, Arcade games and baking Butterfly Cakes. As always, educators and children worked in collaboration to design additional activities to maximise the fun and ensure all children were engaged in the program. In week two, the children enjoyed making Salt Dough Ornaments and Paper Sunglasses, seeing Sonic the Hedgehog 3, playing golf and grounders, baking tasty baked goods like the Hedgehog Slice we made and learning all about water safety with Haley. During the last week, we didn't want to say goodbye to the new friends we made, coming from other schools. The major highlights of this week included, making Oatmeal cookies and experiencing Virtual Reality games for the first time, Drip Art, Lego building competition, Cup Rockets and learning how to use a bow and arrow.
The holiday program also featured other activities download some of the documents below to see what else was on.
For Term 1 at TheirCare, our theme will focus on a trip around the world through cooking experiences, crafts, and stories from children’s diverse cultural backgrounds. Last week we learnt about Australia, along with cultural foods such as Anzac Cookies, Lamingtons and tasting various ways we like to eat our Vegemite!
In Week 2, we will be visiting Mexico to learn about and celebrate Mexican culture, we are even going to learn La Cucaracha! In "Let’s Cook”, next week, we will be learning to make our own Corn Tortillas and Flan Mexicano (Mexican Baked Caramel Custard).
