🎷 A Big Thank You to Antony – River’s Dad in Toddlers! 🎶
Today we had a very special visitor — Antony came in to play the saxophone for the children! 🎵
He played a range of nursery rhymes that had everyone singing, dancing, and joining in with the actions. The highlight of the day was definitely hearing the Bluey theme song live! 💙🐾
Thank you so much, Antony, for sharing your time and talent with us — the children (and educators!) absolutely loved it! 💫
