TheirCare News

Hi parents, guardians, staff, and friends!

Welcome to Week 5 of Term 2!

Can you believe that we are already in Week 5! This term is passing by so quickly. This week’s theme is “Science Week”. During the week we have been exploring science through arts and crafts activities. Every morning we did science-themed coloring pages, and we got to design our lab coats. Also, this week we were lucky to have a pupil-free day. We had a large number of 58 children attend on Monday, which included 15 preps. On Monday it was the child's choice on what we played and created. Outside and in the gym, soccer, football, and tennis were the highlights, including a massive game of everybody’s it which did not stop for over an hour. In the Theircare Room, children got to try out our new resources, which have been a massive hit so far, with mini golf games, ski ball, and new Barbie dolls and games. We always enjoy Pupil-free days as we get to see new and old faces attend and have a whole day of fun together. 

This week’s Pupil of the Week is Sidney Price (1MM) for always looking out and making sure others are okay especially when playing sports. Well done Sid! You should be so proud of yourself 😊

We are excited to let all families know that we have a new permanent staff at Footscray West TheirCare, his name is Dhaval. He started this week with us and has been amazing with the children. 

Also, we would like to let all prep families that starting next week, prep children will be walking themselves over to their classrooms together in the mornings. We are very excited with this development as we have noticed that the prep children are ready to take this step. If you have any concerns, please don’t hesitate to discuss them with us. 

For all families – if you have any questions about TheirCare and would like to come and have a chat, please come and visit us in Emu Corner in the morning and afternoon. Alternatively, you can contact us on the details provided and we will be happy to help you.
