The children have also been playing with an air rocket that shoots the foam rocket into the air, this has been a lot of fun. The children have also been creating and flying plane kites. They made these by attaching paper cutouts of kites onto string and flying them around the playground. In room 3 the children have been drawing Mat Man on the white board. The children also went to PMP going on the slide, climbing the steps, using the roller and climbing across the climbing frame. They had a great time.

Lower Secondary

Students in Lower Secondary have been busy making resources for the therapy team as part of their work skills program.  They have made kinetic sand, rainbow rice and cloud dough.  These items will be used as part of the therapy team's sensory and self regulation programs.

Students have also been working hard to ensure our new chickens have a comfortable place to live.  They have been busy planting, weeding and watering the garden and building valuable skills in building relationships, following directions and gaining skills that will provide a pathway to work outside of Yarrabah.
