What a beautiful space our Kindy community have created!
This garden space has been created from children’s ideas in consideration of the UN Conventions of the Rights of the Child.
Children’s Right 12: Respect for children’s views
Children’s Right 13: Sharing thoughts freely
Children’s ideas for the space included ‘a walking path’, ‘flowers’, ‘statues’, ‘black’, ‘pretty stuff hanging’ and ‘glittery rocks’.
We wish to thank the following people who helped bring the children’s ideas to life:
• The many Kindy families that donated supplies, time and expertise
• Gunalda State School for helping to create the stepping stones and garden decorations with the children
• Miss Cathy, Jason, Nick, Lauren and Jake for their weekend work to prepare the garden space
• Miss Melissa and her family who spent many hours behind the scenes to organise this project
• Children's Rights Queensland for their grant supporting this project
