07.01.2022 FUN IN THE MUD!! We love it when it rains because it means we get to play in the puddles of mud! Today is International Mud Day so make sure to get outside and get your clothes dirty! @ Allambie Bush Kindy

07.01.2022 Join us in celebrating World Animal Day! World Animal Day embraces all animals and the unique concerns of each, in every country, and makes the well-being of animals front-page news.

06.01.2022 Weekly Wednesday Sports Program! The children have been learning soccer, tennis, baseball, basketball, and hockey. Each week they start with warm-up stretches, then talk about the concepts of the sport such as names of equipment, positioning, movements needed. They will then work on larger skills such as jumping, balance, throwing, and kicking before moving on to learning the skills of the games and playing them. Finally they will have a cool down by discussing what they have just learnt. A very well run program by Playball (https://playball.com.au/) and their Northern Beaches franchise.

05.01.2022 Are you planting a tree, starting a new green project, planning a nature activity or engaging in nature play for Schools Tree Day? There are so many benefits of outdoor play and learning for both children and adults. #NationalTreeDay

05.01.2022 Aunty Wendy visited earlier in the year to talk to the children about the Indigenous culture as well as campfires, bush tucker, music, instruments and tools! #NRW2020 #inthistogether2020

04.01.2022 One of the parents, Ben, came in to help us deploy two cameras in the bush in the hope of photographing animal movements during the day and at night. Using food baits, and honey water mixture, they went off into the bush to a particular spot where Ben thought there may be lots of possible passing animal traffic. They placed one camera higher in the tree with the food bait on the opposite tree. The second camera they placed lower down and hammered the food bait into the ground with tent pegs. The two cameras were placed to try and catch different animals. The one higher up will hopefully find sugar gliders and possums and the one on the ground for bandicoots, wallabies and foxes.

03.01.2022 The children here at Allambie Bush Kindy love quiet reading time! Reading to children stimulates the part of the brain that allows them to understand the meaning of language and helps build key language, literacy and social skills. @ Allambie Bush Kindy
