💧 Eco Engineers: Water Wonders Edition! 💧

This term, our young engineers have been diving into all things water, exploring how nature inspires clever designs that move, filter, and flow! 🌊💡

Can you guess what the kids made in today’s challenge?

A huge thank you to Miss Shelby for leading our water engineering curriculum with so much creativity, and to Miss Stef for all her amazing support. 💚

This week’s Natures Kitchen session kicked off with a fun plant ID quiz using common kitchen herbs — the kids loved guessing by sight and smell 👃🍃

We then mixed up our very own herbal play dough, turning scents and textures into a hands-on sensory masterpiece 🎨✨

A huge thank you to Miss Shelby for leading this activity, and to Miss Stef and Miss Ana for their amazing support 💚 We’re so grateful for our wonderful educators who bring nature education, active recreation and tactile learning to life each week for our Joy community 🌳

🌿✨ Edible Art Lab Magic! ✨🌿

What an incredible day we had creating, tasting, and playing with food at our Edible Art Lab!

🍫 First up, the kids built their very own edible garden puddings – layering chocolate pudding, crumbly biscuits, juicy fruits, and aromatic herbs fresh from the Joy garden. Delicious and so creative!

🍝 Next came a hands-on pasta adventure – mixing dough from scratch, kneading it with care, and turning it into whimsical fairy garden-scapes. The creativity (and mess!) was pure magic.

A massive thank you to our superstar educator Miss Stef, and to our volunteer Amy-Leigh and her support worker Debbie, who jumped right in to help make the day truly special. 💚 Your care, energy, and creativity make all the difference for our Joy kids, and we are so grateful for all you do.

Even with Miss Kara unexpectedly needing to head to the hospital early in the day, the Joy spirit shone brightly thanks to this amazing team and our incredible, creative and kind Joy kids who are at the heart of everything that we do. 🌸
