17.01.2022 Children have been busy making new discoveries this week in occasion of National Science Week. Our Toddlers have been learning about a process called Capillary Action, by witnessing how colored water in a jar travels up the paper towel and back down into another jar. Our Pre-Kinder children have been learning how to create drawings and patterns in milk, using food coloring and cotton tips. ... "Children are born eager to learn. Curious by nature, you cant keep them from exploring as they try to comprehend their environment. Everything is a wonder. Childrens enthusiastic curiosity doesnt need to diminish over time. When conditions allow children to satisfy curiosity through safe, self-initiated, and playful exploration, learning occurs naturally. As children investigate, the experiences simultaneously fuel emotional, social, intellectual, physical, and ethical development". by Karen Stephens #nationalscienceweek #scienceexperiment #curiosity #discovery #SparrowEarlyLearning #wyndhamwaters

10.01.2022 This morning one child organised the blocks in a manner that created a high tower, then she moved on to other area of interest, another child came and added some animal figurines, and in midday, a third child was organizing little vehicles around the majestic constructed work of his peers. Block play is an amazing experience, has inspired creation through trial and error challenges, appreciation of others achievements, inclusiveness and sense of agency and belonging.

08.01.2022 Growing plants from seeds is a great way to start gardening earlier in the season. Today, our children and educators have been busy planting seeds into recycled cups and containers filled with potting soil. This process will help seeds to germinate before they can be moved into bigger pots. Children develop positive attitudes and values by engaging in learning experiences such as gardening and taking care of plants. When educators model sustainable practices, they foster c...hildrens capacity to understand, respect, care for and appreciate the natural environment. #sparrowelwyndhamwaters #gettingreadyforspring

03.01.2022 Here at Sparrow Early Learning Wyndham Waters, relationships are everything! We talk about foundations a lot but it mostly refers to preparing children for school. Scissor cutting is a foundation for pencil holding, letter recognition is the foundation of the ability to read and write. RELATIONSHIPS is the foundation for everything. Strong relationships helps cultivate trust, confidence, resilience, respect, empathy.the list goes on!... If children feel safe, secure, respected and LOVED they are much more likely to succeed in all other areas of learning.

03.01.2022 Here is a little sneak peek into some of our emerging new environments, inspired by the Reggio Emila philosophy and our intensive Sparrow Way educator professional education.
