25.01.2022 Bush Kindy Our Bush Kindy programs is run at our fourth learning environment, our Bush Kindy site. Our Bush Kindy site is located in a large section of native bush land behind Bethania Lutheran School. Without leaving school grounds, our children experience a holistic and inspirational process that provides opportunities to achieve, develop confidence and self esteem through hands on learning in local natural spaces. There are six principles of Bush Kindy: Bush Kindy is a ...long term process of frequent and regular sessions in a natural environment Bush Kindy takes place in a natural environment to support the development of a relationship between the child and the natural world Bush Kindy aims to promote the holistic development of all those involved, fostering resilient, confident, independent and creative learners Bush Kindy offers opportunities to take supported risks appropriate to the environment and the child Bush Kindy is run by qualified Forest School Leaders who continuously maintain and develop their professional practice Bush Kindy uses a range of child-centred processes to create a community for development and learning. Our Bush Kindy program was one of the elements which led to our service being accredited by Nature Play Queensland as an Approved Education Provider. #bethanialife #bethanialutherankindy #exceedingallareas #inspiredlearningforlife See more

19.01.2022 Miss C decided to make a necklace at Bush Kindy this week. She took a long piece of grass and tied a knot at the end. She then found a leaf with a hole, and threaded it. The next leaf didn't have a hole. Miss C promptly found a stick and made a hole. She continued with the activity for over 15 minutes. What great problem solving skills and a great way to develop fine motor control. This experience was 100% child lead and focused. There was no educator invervention nor provocation. No structured activity was needed, just play in a natural bush setting. #bethanialife #bethanialutherankindy #inspiredlearningforlife #natureplay #exceedingallareas

05.01.2022 This morning the children created a HUGE game of The Floor is Lava requiring shared ideas, co-operation and lots of communication and team work. Midway through the course is a huge jump, a leap of faith. Some children managed this, some were challenged and some showed some great perseverance and kept trying and pushing themselves. Mr J explained how to do it to an educator you have to listen to your body and if your body is good and says yes, you just jump. #bethanialife #inspiredlearningforlife #bethanialutherankindy #looseparts #outdoorlearning

03.01.2022 Childhood serves a purpose; it isn't something to "get through" or speed up. It's there to protect developing minds. To nurture young souls. So, let's give our ...kids the space to be unbusy. Let's unschedule. Let's "miss out. Let's hold the space for childhood. Because childhood isn't a dress rehearsal for adulthood.
