17.01.2022 Every year, thousands of Australian parents face a difficult decision: should they send their child to school or delay until the following year? In New South Wales, for example, children born January to July can start school aged 4 to 5 years, or delay a year and start aged 5 to 6 years. For NSW children born August to December, this choice isnt availablethese kids almost always start school in the year after their fifth birthday, barring special circumstances Its a tough decision for all families, please pop in to see your childs teacher to further discuss their overall development should you feel worried or anxious about your upcoming decisions.

But first we had a little discussion with the children about the corona virus and how to keep it away. Following on from Children hearing it on the radio and television. (see attached the resource we used) We had a lovely response from the children with already a lot of knowledge First we got a plate full of water We added some pepper to the plate full of water. (the pepper represents germs) Then we got another bowl.We added some soap to the bowl. Miss Eman explained to the children that the pepper inside the water is pretend germs. First we tested it out, we wanted to see what happens when we put our finger in the water and pepper . Turns out the germs quickly moved towards the finger and stuck onto it!! Then we decided to stick our finger in the soap first, then into the water and pepper. Turns out the germs quickly moved away from the soap and water. The children then soon discovered that if they wash their hands with water AND soap it will keep the germs away.
