Term 1 Important Dates 

Three Year Old Kinder News

It’s been a fantastic week at kinder! The magnetic tile construction work has been so impressive and detailed. This took a lot of teamwork and care! The children are really loving the nursery set-up in the home corner. We are seeing some great dramatic play as children express their understandings of family, care and nurturance. We are looking forward to our last week of Term 1 and the Easter hat Parade next Friday!

Four Year Old Kinder News

As Term 1 comes to a close, it’s been wonderful to reflect on the growth and excitement our 4-year-old groups have experienced. With the cooler weather, we’ve taken full advantage of the outdoors, exploring nature, engaging in physical activities, and enjoying the fresh air. The children have really embraced the change in seasons, and it’s been lovely to see them so engaged in outdoor learning.

In addition to our outdoor adventures, we’ve begun learning and practicing our songs for the upcoming production. The children have been singing with so much enthusiasm and joy, and it’s been a pleasure to watch them build confidence as they learn the lyrics and movements. We can already tell they’re going to shine on the day of the performance!

Another highlight this term has been our time spent with the kinder buddies. The younger children absolutely adore their older buddies, and it’s heartwarming to see the connections they’re forming. Whether it’s through reading together, playing games, or simply sharing experiences, these moments of buddy time have been invaluable in building relationships and fostering a sense of community.
