Djilba is the Noongar season of conception and growth, spanning August and September.
As part of our learning and exploration of the Noongar season, we are working on our creative visual expression of Djilba.
Colours of Djilba - our canvas features lots of shades of pink, purple, and yellow to symbolise the first massive bloom of native wattles and flowers such as the Geraldton Wax.
Our process, our Junior Kindy friends were very fascinated by the season and its flora and fauna. We began the process by talking about the animals, colours and plants, and chose the colour pink as our base.
We then glued some bark for the garden beds, similar to what we see in our play yard, full of wood chips. Later, we used a hole punch to make our wattle plant and cut together purple paper for more wildflowers.
