Our Toy Incursion

Learning through Play!

During Term 4, the Preps enjoyed a Toy Incursion.  This special event allowed students to have hands on experiences with many different toys from the past and present.  They were able to explore things like movement and also the materials they are made of. Students learnt all about the evolution of the toys over time, it was also a bucket load of fun!

 

Here are some of our student’s writing pieces after the event:
