24.01.2022 Here's a little more clarity on Term 4.

24.01.2022 From little things big things grow ...our gardening programs use science to teach sustainability. Our kids plant seeds, cultivate and nourish them until they are plants. Some of the explorations are: Which weeds are edible? How do we keep our soil happy? ... How do we bring bees to pollinate our flowers? How do we make the best use of a small garden? #innercitygarden #footscraygarden #kitchengarden #backyardgarden #schoolgarden #sustainabilityprogram #smallschoolbigdifference #learningtogether #happysoil #happygarden #learningcommunity #stmonicasfootscray

23.01.2022 To all our dads, stepdads, grandads, foster dads, uncles, awesome mates and the people are special in the lives of our kids. Have a great day today. Celebrate! Sending sending strength and love to those who are missing family today, those who are separated from their kids, those who never got to be dads and always wanted to be and those whose kids have passed on. Today is your day too! Do something kind for yourself and cherish your "dadness." #happyfathersday #fathersday20...20 #reachout #allsortsofdads #lovefordad #dadsoffootscray #dadsinlockdown #lockdownmelbourne #fathersdayinmelbourne2020 #stmonicasfootscray #dadness Happy Father's Day everyone!

23.01.2022 What a gorgeous day in the yard! We are counting down the days till we see all our kids again!

23.01.2022 If you can't go to the Sovereign Hill and the goldfields - think outside the square! A modern day twist on life on the goldfields. Putting up tents, digging for gold, making wanted posters with barely any dirt in sight . An afternoon of problem solving and exploration that required patience, good humour and team work. #thinkoutsidethesquare #moderndaytwist #diggingforgold #lifeonthegoldfields #goldfields #puttinguptents #teamwork #fun #nodirt #covidsolutions #noexcursionsin2020 #makeyourownfun #smallschoolbigdifference #stmonicasfootscray #learningtogether #workingtogether #learningcommunity #covidsafe
