25.01.2022 Back out into the gardens today for our Gumnut children. We have loved learning all about our wonderful bees and taking every opportunity to go out and quietly observe them. Each day the children are able to retain and communicate to their teachers new facts and information. Did you know when the bees are flying around their hive in a large group it’s called a ‘swarm’?

25.01.2022 Sustainable September day 8! Exploring seeds and gardening

25.01.2022 The stingless bees have finally arrived and the children have been so eager get a closer look! Today we learnt about the hive and the queen bee before making our way outside to look at our own special hive. The children verbally communicated to their educator about how the bees looked and shared the knowledge they had learnt earlier about how the bees don’t hurt us, the types of plants they draw pollen from and that our bees are part of a ‘colony’.

03.01.2022 Sustainable September Day 2! We enjoyed exploring our mathematical capabilities

03.01.2022 Today we explored nature paints using sandstone rocks and water. The children started by grinding together two rocks to create dust they then used a water dropper to add water and a stick to mix. The educators added some mirrors outside which they then used to look at themselves as they painted on their faces.

02.01.2022 From little things, big things grow! After planting some tiny seeds months ago today the children discovered whilst exploring the garden that some vegetables had grown! We harvested some beans and a small beetroot and saw that we had some squash, silver beet, tomato and lettuce well on its way. We picked a few of our beans and sat together to discuss them. The children held them, discussed them, smelt them and tasted them with their educator. They hypothesised what the inside of the pod would look like and shared their interest in how the beans inside were all different sizes. Whilst sifting through the veggie garden we met a beautiful yellow lady beetle can these ones fly? Xavier asked I think they can their educator shared let’s watch and see. We love spending time in our gardens and can’t wait to see what else we can grow.
