Exploring our STEM room

The lily pillies children spent their afternoon exploring the STEM room. They were curious and engaged in exploring a variety of different resources like numbers, patterns and the human body.

The STEM education plays a crucial role in shaping the minds of young children and their future, by introducing concepts of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics at an early age, children develop critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and a strong foundation for future learning.

Dinosaur Fun

Bluebells and Bottlebrush educators set up a fun-filled dinosaur adventure! The children had a blast learning about dinosaurs through play while discovering their names. Everyone stayed super engaged and excited throughout the experience!

The educators set up an exciting sensory play area featuring dinosaurs, complete with wet sand, bark, colourful stones, and some water. Miss Chloe created a pathway of dinosaur footprints outside the room, and the children couldn't wait to follow them to the tuff tray.

The Kinder 1 & 2 children had an amazing time bringing their very own child-safe fireworks to life! They’re absolutely thrilled to take them home and make some festive, joyful sounds with their families!
Educator Lisa was the spark that ignited everyone’s enthusiasm, keeping the energy high and the excitement bubbling during this creative adventure. As the children crafted their colourful masterpieces, she introduced a flurry of new words and shared her excitement for the upcoming New Year! The children were bubbling with curiosity, asking tons of questions, and sharing their own fun experiences from home, making this activity an unforgettable celebration!

For this art experience, we chose to express our excitement through the creation of our very own fireworks using:
two paper plates,
bright coloured paint,
earbuds as paintbrushes,
3 small rocks, 3 small shells, and some wood chips for texture.

To craft our fireworks, we began by splashing bright colours onto the plates with our earbuds. After securing the plates with cello tape and ice block sticks, we left a gap to fill with our small treasures—rocks, shells, and wood chips—before sealing them up tightly. With each shake of our shakers, we recreated the joyful sounds of fireworks bursting in the night sky.

This enriching experience allows children to engage in a simple yet meaningful project that hones their fine motor skills while creating a sensory delight.

Fine Motor Skills: Your child will refine their dexterity as they manipulate the small components while assembling their shakers.

Creativity: Your child will explore their imagination as they bring music to life with their handcrafted instruments.
