We have made decoupage reindeers, wire and plaster sculptures to make into tree decorations, mosaic magiclay trees and some experimenting with dry felting techniques. Below are some incomplete artworks.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION

Epsom PS has had the opportunity to participate in a new tennis program being brought into schools. Classroom to Courts is a four week program that will teach the students the basics of a forehand and backhand swing along with the rules of tennis. These students also get the opportunity to go to the South Bendigo Tennis Club to play on grass courts.
