Mother's Day Celebration with Preps
Our Prep students recently welcomed their mums and special people into the classroom for a joyful Mother’s Day celebration, connected to our Unit of Inquiry, Who We Are. As students explore family communities, belonging, and the factors that shape identity, this event provided a meaningful opportunity to celebrate the important people who help shape who we are.
Students proudly guided their special guests through a range of interactive experiences, including portrait creation, jewellery making, shared reading, and a special wellbeing corner where they offered hand massages as part of a pamper session. It was a wonderful celebration of connection, community, and the special relationships that support and nurture us.
