As we have come to the end of another term and another year of celebrating our learning as a community, children have had endless opportunities throughout this week to bring in the joy and blessings of the season of advent, the birth of Baby Jesus into our entire learning community. Here are some preceious moments of creativity and unity through many festive leaning experiences created by our little learners.
Our little learner’s this week have maximised their learning skills with utilising our Holy Family Catholic School common community spaces by venturing on lots of walks to the playground , the MUDLA , the oval with their bikes and collecting some vegetables and strawberries for consumption during their meal times.
Today we had a special visitor visit us here at Early Learning. Ms. Arichie’s pet turtle Speedy visited our little learners. This learning experience was so beautiful to watch as all of our children were excited to be included and gathered outdoors to experience this wonderous moment. Petting the turtle , brushing his shell with a tooth brush and feeding were some memorable moments that were captured. We even had a special helper Ms Archie’s son who came along to offer some help.
Some specs of gold for the Year 2024, children helped make their learning space clean and sparkle for the New Year 2025.
Wishes to all of our beautiful families for a peaceful and relaxing holidays, Merry Christmas and a happy New Year 2025.
