Little Visitors at our Big School

A joyful morning of stories, games and laughter brought together our Year 6 students and Kinder neighbours from Goodstart ELC, strengthening a growing partnership between big and little learners.

On Monday 23rd June, our Heathdale Melton campus hosted a fun visit from our Kinder neighbours at Goodstart Early Learning Centre. Ten cute Kinders walked up to “Big School” with their carers, to join us for an energetic play session with some of our Year 6 students.

Our Year 6s read books in the Library to their Kinder buddies then headed outdoors for some lively games. The large parachute was a firm favourite as our Kinder buddies pretended to be sleeping rabbits. It was debatable as to who enjoyed this more – the Kinders or our Year 6s!!! A fun game of “Tails” followed, then team quoits and a play in our Prep playground.

Our time together with our Kinder neighbours reminded us of this scripture: “For we are partners working together for God, and you are the soil God has prepared.” (1 Corinthians 3:9)

We look forward to continuing our community partnership with Goodstart ELC next semester!
