Colour mixing in the sandpit has been a messy fun activity. We even picked some rosemary from our garden to make yummy ‘soup’ 😊

He he he we love celebrating book week 🥰

Science week was last week and we did some of our favorite reaction experiments like bicarbonate and vinegar, and skittles in warm water oh and the infamous Coke and Mentos.
We also did the balloon rocket on string and a light party with a disco speaker.
We added two new experiences inflating a balloon using bicarbonate and vinegar reaction and rolling a car dipped in bubble mixture through/ into a BUBBLE!! It didn’t even pop! What an awesome week of extra science experiments.

This week is reconciliation week our little humans don’t quite understand what it is but we still celebrated it with a wide range of activities.
We even wore yellow all week.
Why do you wear yellow for reconciliation?
Yellow is the centre of the Aboriginal flag – the sun, the giver of energy and life. Yellow is also the Children's Ground colour – fresh, energetic and hopeful. This just somes up our kids.
