24.01.2022 Reconciliation Week 2020 After going for our excursion over to SuniTAFE, exploring through the many garden areas and collecting some natural materials, we included it in a group collage - creating an image of Australia.

23.01.2022 Groups 1 & 2 have been working together to develop our outdoor environment, creating some wonderful new spaces over the past month. The children have loved helping add new plants to our yard, caring for, and watering them, and exploring the many sensory elements we have been incorporating. We would like to thank all families who have made a generous contribution to our growing garden. We look forward to future contributions.

23.01.2022 Just a reminder tomorrow Friday the 24th of July is 80s Day! We invite you to come dressed in your best 80s themed attire. We look forward to seeing the crazy colours, denim and big hair!!!

17.01.2022 Whilst NAIDOC Week has been postponed until November, we are still sharing in recognising, acknowledging and celebrating indigenous culture throughout this week.

Nations people may have used. The children are able to access clay pots with paints, enabling them to follow their creative ideas and express themselves through art.

16.01.2022 As some of you may have noticed we have been adding lots of plants to our gardens which we have collected from SuniTAFE grounds. Last week we had a family reach out and ask us how they could help during these times, they wanted to show their appreciation and asked what we needed. We thought some unwanted or uprooted plants would be great! Later that afternoon this family brought in two Bunnings vouchers for us to put towards some new plants! A very big thank you to this family!

16.01.2022 Reconciliation Week 2020 Group 3 participated in a walk around the TAFE grounds. They discovered some Indigenous art and also collected some natural elements for their art activities.

08.01.2022 Weather is often a perceived barrier to outdoor play. It’s easy to decide to stay inside when it’s raining, snowing, or cold, but with the right gear and attitude, it’s almost always worth it to get outside. Most children are drawn to puddles and when they are allowed to play in the rain they may form a deeper connection with nature. The experience of playing outdoors in the rain helps children learn to test slippery paths before stepping on them, avoid deep puddles and take... advantage of more shallow puddles, and keep their balance in different types of shoes. We want to provide many opportunities for children to grow in their independence and responsibility. Playing in the rain provides the opportunity for children to develop self help skills, including moving items that can be ruined by rain to dry areas, placing rain gear to dry after play, and wiping spills from coming indoors after playing in the rain.

08.01.2022 This Friday 24th July TAFE Kids are having another fun day dress up!! We invite you to come dressed in your best 80s themed attire. We look forward to seeing the crazy colours and big hair!!!
