Yesterday, our children had a wonderful time participating in the Newmarket State School (NSS) Under 8’s Day! 💛
After putting on our high-vis vests and listening carefully to our educators’ safety instructions, we made our way to the NSS grounds for a morning full of fun and exploration.
The children enjoyed:
🐐 visiting the animal petting zoo
📦 creating with cardboard boxes
🎯 testing their skills by throwing balls at targets
🚒 sitting inside a real fire truck
🌈 and, of course, enjoying delicious fairy bread!
Experiences like these are just one of the many benefits of choosing Banks Street Kindy for families planning to send their child to Newmarket State School.
Come along to our Open Day on Saturday 30 May, from 9-11am, and discover why Banks Street Kindy could be the perfect fit for your child.
We can’t wait to meet you! ✨

Our children recently had a magical experience with a visit from Evegreen Children's Theatre! 🎭✨️
Their delightful show, Reef Experience, brought the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef to life. The children were captivated as they met a variety of colourful, curious and fascinating sea creatures, all while learning how important it is to care for this precious and fragile environment. 🌊🐠💙
A wonderful reminder that by protecting our oceans today, we can ensure they continue to be enjoyed for generations to come.

It’s been wonderful to see our children’s confidence blossoming and new friendships forming each day. 💕
Here are just a few of the fun and meaningful activities we’ve enjoyed so far:
🐛 Learning about resilience through shared storytime
🎲 Practising turn-taking and conversation skills during board games with peers
🎨 Building fine motor skills, problem-solving, and focus through arts and crafts
🌽 Exploring where our food comes from by learning about the corn life cycle
Every day brings new opportunities for curiosity, connection, and growth — and we can’t wait to see what our little learners discover next! 🌼✨

Bunyingganha - breathe was created to gently remind us all that our wealth is our health... We released the album digitally on 5/5/25 and we have been hearing so much wonderful feedback from you all, and now it's finally time to release the physical copies into the world!! Creating this album has been such an amazing journey, and I can't wait to celebrate it's release with mob, family, friends and fans. Come along, have a yarn, enjoy some tunes, and be a part of this special moment! 🖤💛❤
