SAKG NEWS

With holidays fast approaching, the SAKG team thought we would share a couple of activities which you may wish to do during this time.  Included are some of student favourite recipes, along with literacy and numeracy interactive activities for both the kitchen and garden.  These are of varying levels of difficulty so you will need to look over them and choose one which you think suits you best. We hope you can have some fun with these.

 

We also would like to thank the DASH team in advance for agreeing to care for the chickens and guinea pigs over the holiday break.  We know that the animals are going to love all the cuddles and attention and in turn, those attending the holiday program are going to benefit from the joy the animals bring.  It’s a win win for all!
