Weeks 6 & 7, Term 2
2/6/25-13/6/25

In week 6 we celebrated World Environment Day on June 5th with environmental dioramas, earth puzzles, a nature scavenger hunt and some new winter veggies planted in our front garden!

In week 7 we had a paper hat competition and runway, a series of dance battles to get up and active, started new cross-stitch and embroidery kits with the older children, made a new art deco inspired door sign for our movie room and made mini apple pies.
By far this week, the most popular and immersive activity was the imaginative restaurant play in our home corner! With a letter from Anthony Albanese himself, the children had to redesign and rebrand their KFC restaurant from the ground up to encorporate a newer, healthier menu and adhere to food safety regulations in order to avoid being shut down by the health inspector and the government.

Reconciliation Week 2025
Week 5, Term 2
26/5/25 - 30/5/25

The key theme of Reconciliation Week this year was "Bridging Now to Next", focusing on all Australians stepping ahead and pushing forward to create a nation strengthened by respectful relationships between the wider Australian community and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Isander peoples, guided by the lessons of the past.

To encorporate this theme into our programming, we took inspiration from traditional Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artwork, use of symbols, and connections with the earth to create our own artwork, wall displays and crafting activities. We focused on our own relationships with the land and with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and how we can move forward together to a better future for everyone.

Week 3 term 2
12/5/25 - 16/5/25

In week 3 we participated in activities for National Road Safety Week and National Families Week.

We made the OSHC room into a huge road map to practice road safety with our toy cars, and had smaller roads set up on the tables and some outside made of chalk!
The masking tape roads in our OSHC room were so well loved by everyone that we continued our road safety learning into week 4!

At the hall we made family trees and discussed our family values & the reasons why we love our families. The younger kids filled out "about my family" worksheets and had fun telling eachother about the different people in their families!

Weeks 1 and 2, Term 2
29/4/25 - 9/5/25

Week 1 was a nice, relaxing start to term 2 with an emphasis on team building. We made oobleck together, and played group games like bingo, soccer, the human knot, red rover, group juggling, blind guide and balloon games.

Week 2 we celebrated Mother's Day on the 11th by making a variety of crafts for our mothers/grandmothers like flower cups, coupons and cards.

We made red nose cupcakes and biscuits for Red Nose Day on the 8th, and ate our afternoon tea in the nature play for outdoor classroom Day also on the 8th.

28th April Pupil Free Day - Minecraft Build and Create Day!

Today was all about everyone's favourite game, Minecraft! We made our own Minecraft box city with recycled boxes and acrylic paint, made Minecraft beaded keyrings, Minecraft diamond paintings, masks and more! We connected the Nintendo switch to the big screen and took turns playing Minecraft, and all participated in a Minecraft themed fitness run later on in the day!
Even our food was Minecraft themed, with healthy snacks like watermelon, trapdoors, sticks and dirt blocks!

April School Holidays, week 2
22/4 - 24/4

Week 2 of the April holidays was a short one, starting on Tuesday the 22nd with Taco Tuesday! We made our own pinata dolls with surprises inside, God's eyes, rock cactuses and musical maracas and castanets! We also enjoyed making and eating tacos for afternoon tea!

Wednesday we enjoyed watching The Jungle Book Kids show, presented to us by the Adelaide Youth Theatre.

And finally for the end of the April Holidays we celebrated with a party day! We had a big shared lunch and played a bunch of party games like the chocolate game, musical statues, sleeping logs and balloon keepy uppy! In the afternoon we also put aside some time to make poppies for Anzac Day on Friday.

April School Holidays 2025
14/4 - 17/4

The first Monday of April school holidays got us right into the swing of things for Easter with Easter crafts like sock bunnies, Easter hats, bunny nose popsticks and pasta eggs, as well as chocolate Easter treats and TWO Easter egg hunts!

On Tuesday of week 1 we went down to Wiz Bang and spent most of our day enjoying the indoor laser tag, glow in the dark mini golf, jungle gym playground and just dance disco room!

Wednesday we went to the Big Rocking Horse in Gumeracha where we got to climb the rocking horse, feed and pet all of the wildlife park animals and play through a 9 hole mini golf course!

And finally on Thursday we were visited by the Recycle-Man who taught us the importance of recycling & putting our rubbish in the correct bins. After the show, we used our new knowledge to upcycle some of our own recycled materials into works of art!

Term 1, weeks 10&11
31/3 - 11/4

As term 1 came to an end, we got ourselves in gear for school holidays with a bucket-load of fun, engaging activities that focused on hands-on learning for development of fine motor skills and hand eye coordination.

We made bacon and egg muffins, blended our own smoothies, made fidget bracelets and pasta necklaces, as well as making a playdough volcano for a science experiment.

The rest of our activities were themed around Nature Play Week, involving nature and natural elements into our hands-on play. We did Aboriginal dot paintings on tree bark that we collected, made nature soup with beets, lemons and home grown mint leaves from our front garden, did a nature scavenger hunt, painted rocks from outside & made "seed heads" that we watched grow!

Weeks 8&9, Term 1
17/3 - 28/3

Week 8 was Harmony Week! To celebrate, we made a collaborative crayon box display, harmony day balloons and bracelets, and decorated out the front of OSHC with orange ribbons! We also took on some cultural cooking activities to encorporate the theme of harmony between everyone from all different backgrounds. We made sushi from Japan, tacos from Mexico and cold rolls from Vietnam!

In week 9 we practiced road safety on the asphalt with chalk roads, and in the OSHC room with toy cars and road signs. Nat ran a shoelace workshop to teach kids how to tie up their own shoes & handed out awards to everyone who succeeded! We also played with instruments and dress ups, more chalk, and Jayne's spontaneous trap activity!
