Our 3 & 4yo Kindergarten children had so much fun visiting our friends at The Bays Aged Care this Term. ๐Ÿ’› The smiles, stories, and laughter reminded us how special intergenerational bonds are. We look forward to visiting again in Term 4! ๐ŸŒท

We had such a wonderful time visiting St. Mary's Catholic Primary School this Term as part of our Community Kinder Excursion Program! Our kindy children loved getting a sneak peek into life at big school. These transition visits are a fantastic way to help them feel confident and excited for their own transition to Prep. Big thanks to the St. Mary's team for having us! โœจ

This is childhood.
Messy hands. Big imaginations.
Friendships made over cubbies.
Problem solving in the sandpit.
Confidence on the climbing frame.
Laughter that echoes down the hallway.
Stories on the mat.
Hugs at pickup.

As we head into National Reconciliation Week, we used a wonderful resource created by SNAICC to explore the history and meaning behind the colours of the Aboriginal Flag. Our kinder children loved using red, yellow, and black to connect with this important learning through art.

Recently we ventured out to visit our friends at . โœจ

We loved singing and dancing during our own Storytime with the Librarian. Iโ€™m a Little Teapot and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Once I Caught a Fish Alive were our favourites. We all laughed through the book Piranhas Donโ€™t Eat Bananas ๐ŸŒ๐ŸŽฃ

After Storytime we had a relaxing browse and borrowed a few stories to take back to kinder. ๐Ÿ“–
