Vacation Care Fun

Looking at the vacation care programs last term, we decided to send the girls for a couple of days that looked quite interesting as the 2nd weeks theme revolved around the outdoors and bush environment.

On their first day, the girls went on an excursion to Greening Australia, conveniently located about 200m away on the adjacent oval. Here they were educated on bush tucker by an indigenous speaker.

The next day was woodwork day where they were to build a bird house. I arrived in the afternoon to see these wonderful creations! Each bird house was design and painted by a group of children (of mixed ages). The houses are now securely positioned in various trees around the edge of the school oval. A great idea!
