Harmony Week 2023: Everyone Belongs
What a busy, yet meaningful and successful week of celebrating Harmony Week 2023!
We have teamed with Walanga Muru - Macquarie University to collaborate with our local (and beyond) Eearly Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) services and schools in advocating the importance of ECEC and education in creating a brighter future, where "everyone belongs".
So many ECEC services and our local schools have participated with one heart in advocating for social justice, equality, equity, inclusion, respect for diversity and differences.
This shows how strong and connected our community is!
"Social Justice begins in Early Childhood"

It was a busy week for us at Morning Buds, we has so many special visits from Aunty Trish and Carol from Walanga Muru community at Macquarie University to read the dream time story of "How the Birds Got Their Colours". The children then engaged in a sensory craft experience of creating our own birds! The children also made scones with Wattleseed - Thank you for sharing your delicious recipe Aunty Trish!
We had children from CCA NSW Family Day Care and North Ryde Community Preschool coming to join us in our STEM Incursion with Dr Lolly- which we explored Australia using our friend robot. This experience exposed children to early STEM concepts of coding, directions, problem solving and much more! And the most important part was that they all had SO MUCH FUN!
