To our Bandicoot Families

 

 

What a wonderful month of exploration and creative learning! Here is a deeper look at what our young learners have been diving into:

  • Beach Discovery: Our new beach discovery sessions have been a huge hit! The children have loved exploring sandy textures, discovering unique shells, and engaging in hands-on ocean play. This focus has sparked endless curiosity about marine life, sensory touch, and the natural world around us.
  • Art & Creative Mediums: Expression has been at an all-time high as we experimented with dynamic textures and techniques. From rolling paint with truck wheels and marbles to building fluffy shaving foam canvases, cotton ball creations, and watching white flowers absorb colourful dyes, every day has brought a new masterpiece while developing fine motor skills

 

 

  • Science Experiments: Curious minds have been hard at work testing out exciting hands-on concepts. Favourites included creating a vibrant “dancing rainbow” through simple chemical reactions, making volcano and conducting a germ experiment with glitter and soap. These activities helped the children ask big questions, make predictions, and understand daily hygiene in a memorable way.
  • The Doctor’s Corner: Our dramatic play area transformed into a bustling community clinic! Children have loved dressing up in coats and stethoscopes, carefully examining their stuffed peers, and looking after their peers. It has been a fantastic way to foster empathy, communication, and cooperative role-play.

Thank you for continuing to share these wonderful learning moments with us!
