Primary Clubs
Truganina College
Games and Drawing Club have been a massive success this term! During the club, students have an opportunity to engage with a range of activities, with something for everyone available!
Students use their place value skills with board games like Bingo, with peg and nail board activities challenging their fine motor and concentration skills! Classics like Lego and Duplo blocks are always popular and it is fantastic to see students use their STEM brains to create fantastic pieces! Some students like to use this time, for more of a calming and creative activity, such as drawing or colouring, with a range of materials readily available to them.
It has been fantastic to see students using this space to build friendships and connections with their peers, finding similarities and interests with students they may not have otherwise met on the playground. It is a safe and fun space and the level of student choice in the activity they choose, allows them to feel a level of agency.
Some quotes from some club attendees:
