Western Suburbs Kindergarten

Hi everyone,
A quick update about our 2025 Christmas Raffle. The draw was planned for 3pm today, but a few of our committee members are unwell, so we’ve had to postpone. We’ll share the new draw date and time as soon as we can.

While we wait, we want to shine a light on the incredible businesses who donated to this raffle. Their generosity is the only reason we’re able to run fundraisers like this for our kindy community. Every voucher, prize, and contribution genuinely makes a difference for our kids, our educators, and our centre.

Please take a moment to check out the amazing local businesses in the images attached. If you’re able, support them, follow them, or give them a little love. They showed up for our kindy, and we’re so grateful.

Thank you to our families for your patience and understanding,
Western Suburbs C and K Parent Committee

🌿 Real herbs. Real tools. Real learning.
Last week, the kids took charge of the sensory tray - turning mint, basil, and water into potions, soups, and “secret recipes.” With spoons, jugs, and mortar and pestles in hand, they chopped, poured, mixed, and imagined.

What’s being learned here?
We’ve got a few ideas… but we’d love to hear yours. What do you see happening here? Let us know in the comments! 💚
