This week Pre-Kindy pupils engaged in many fun learning activities. In Maths, they counted the number of ingredients used to make their own paints. After exploring with textures, they took their ‘own-made’ paints home in little tubs. In pre-writing literacy, children continued to work on their hand-eye coordination, tripod grip and hand control as they used pens to trace zig zag, curve and straight lines. Pre-Kindy also used a variety of wooden resources to construct structures and engaging in problem solving and logical thinking skills.
Kindy pupils continued to focus on why they need to reduce, reuse and recycle their rubbish. They went on a virtual tour through the ocean to investigate the impact of rubbish on the sea animals and their wellbeing. In writing, Kindy made a poster to remind everyone in the community to reduce the use of plastic. On Wednesday, Kindy enjoyed the 'Eco Dress Up' day where the children came to school wearing clothing made from recyclable materials.
