Pre-schools’ Update – Week 3
Dear Families,
It’s been a busy and exciting week at Pre-school, filled with special visitors and meaningful experiences!
We were delighted to welcome Mr Andrews from the Junior School, who always enjoys engaging with the children, taking part in the daily routine, and getting to know them better. We also had a visit from Mr Noble, the Junior School Chaplain, who will begin holding short group sessions with the 5 day children at St Michael’s and St Mark’s Pre-school on alternate weeks.
The children at St Michael’s 3 day and 5 day classes had a wonderful opportunity to take part in an Aboriginal Cultural Experience, which was a hands on educational experience for the children. Please do not forget to look at the daybook where you will be able to see photos!
Another highlight was a visit from the local Fire Department to both Pre-schools. While some classes unfortunately missed out due to the fire crews being called away, we hope to reschedule these sessions soon.
A big thank you to families who have been sending children in with raincoats and boots. Despite the wet weather, it’s been fantastic to continue enjoying outdoor play! If you have not done so already, we kindly ask for you to provide wet weather gear for your children to enjoy outdoor play.
Upcoming Events:
- Week 4 – Monday, 19 May: StEPS Vision Screening at 9:30am, St Mark’s
- Week 6 – Friday, 6 June: Aboriginal Incursion from 9:00–10:00am for the 2-Day Group at St Michael’s
Kind regards,
Abigail McFarlane
Pre-schools Coordinator
