TeamKids
As we wrap up another exciting and engaging term at TeamKids Wollert PS, we are proud to share some of the highlights from our program. This term has been filled with creativity, connection, and plenty of fun, with children actively shaping their experiences each day.
Building Connections & Community
A major highlight this term has been the strong friendships and connections formed across the program. Children bonded over shared interests and engaged in meaningful interactions through play, conversation, and shared experiences.
Hit activities:
- Board games like Mastermind and Jumanji, encouraging teamwork and thinking together
- Collaborative sets like Minecraft blocks, magnetic tiles where children worked together, negotiated roles, and supported one another
- Leadership roles during clean up and mat time
These experiences have supported a strong sense of belonging, with children learning to include others, share ideas, and build friendships.
Creative Arts & Construction
Creativity has truly shone this term, especially through the use of recycled and open-ended materials. The children have shown incredible imagination and problem-solving skills while creating their own projects.
Hit activities:
- Building fairy houses using cardboard boxes
- Designing and creating a cardboard pinball machine
- Making paper houses for character cutouts
- Printout activities featuring favourite characters like Spongebob, Kuromi, and more
These experiences have allowed children to express their individuality while also collaborating and sharing ideas with peers.
Physical Play & Movement

Hit activities:
- Octopus and tiggy games
- Air hockey (even when the batteries ran out, the fun continued!)
- Group dancing sessions to favourite songs
Children have shown great sportsmanship, turn-taking, and enthusiasm while staying active and engaged.
Children’s Voice & Choice
This term, we have continued to prioritise children’s voice, ensuring they feel heard and involved in decision-making.

- Children suggesting a variety of food options for the menu and brainstorming for new activities every month
- Choosing their own play spaces and activities that they want to take part in
- Increased engagement during our cooking club with almost 50 children every week
- Wall decorations completely made by children
We’ve seen that when children are actively involved in decisions, their participation and excitement grow significantly.

Children have enjoyed sharing their preferences and being part of the conversation around food.
