Hats
We no longer require hats everyday, however as we are still having some warmer weather the children may need to wear hats if the UV is 3 or over. So please continue to pop their hats in their bags. We do also have spares if needed at kinder.
Library Bags for 4 YO's
The 4 YO's have now started their weekly visits to the school library. Please remember to send them along each week so the children can borrow and return their books.

Waratah - Thursdays 11.50am - 12.30pm

Last week the 3 YO's had a great time taking part in their Drama ToolBox Incursion. Our Banksia Group re enacted the story of Tiddlick the Frog, which helped them understand important lessons about sharing resources and the consequences of greed. The children were introduced to Australia’s cultural heritage and the value of cooperation and respect for the environment.
Our Wattle Group delved into the prehistoric era of dinosaurs through hands-on, play-based learning. The children dressed up as different dinosaurs and engaged in dramatic play to understand how dinosaurs moved, lived, and interacted. They explored the lifecycle of dinosaurs, including building nests, hatching eggs, and learning about food chains, fostering curiosity and wonder about the natural world.
