Wildcats Basketball

Today our Year 5/6 class were lucky to have a clinic with current Wildcats player Kevin White who showcased a few ball skills and drills for the students to practice during recess and lunchtimes with their friends.

Outdoor Classroom Day

As reflected in our School Business Plan 2021-2024, it is our aim to get as many children playing and learning outside every day, building an understanding of Nature Play as well having an opportunity to build life skills such as resilience, teamwork and creativity that are central to children’s enjoyment of childhood. 

 On Thursday 4 November our students participated in Outdoor Classroom Day which is a day to celebrate and inspire outdoor learning and play. 

 Outdoor learning has been shown to improve children’s health, engage them with learning and developing a greater connection with nature

Loose Parts Incursion

On Wednesday 3 November all students participated in a “Loose Parts” incursion presented by Jonathan Neen (Pause, Rewind, Play) that allowed each child to make, build, experiment and invent with a variety of commonly found items. 

Loose parts allow children to explore and discover, imagine and create, enquire and experiment, play and tinker about as they build on their developmental skills in a supportive learning environment. 

They can be added to any learning environment for children to adapt and to turn into anything their imagination allows.
