Hatching Curiosity: Kindergarten’s Duckling Experience
Over the last 2 weeks, Kindergarten was delighted to welcome a very special group of visitors, our ducklings. Both Echidna and Wallaby classes thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to observe and interact with them over a sustained period, noticing the many changes and behaviours that occur as the ducklings grow.
Through daily experiences, the children have been developing their understanding of living things by carefully observing how the ducklings move, feed, and respond to their environment. These shared observations have provided a rich connection to the Science topic Living World.
It has been a wonderful fortnight of curiosity, discussion, and hands-on learning, with Echidna and Wallaby students showing great care and excitement throughout the ducklings’ visit.

NSW Public Schools Parent Survey
This Term we are inviting parents and carers to participate in the NSW Public Schools Parent Survey. The survey gives you the opportunity to share your experience at our school, including communication, inclusion, wellbeing and how your child’s learning is supported. Hearing directly from our parents and carers will help us understand what’s working well and where improvements can be made. Participation in the survey is optional, your responses are anonymous, and it takes around 10 to 15 minutes to complete. You can access the survey at https://surveyme.education.nsw.gov.au/sc/yVMnz8NZI9d2u1h2YMo6Pw2
Further information about the NPSS Parent Survey is available at https://education.nsw.gov.au/npss.
