Santa came to visit our Seniors and Juniors today! 🎅🎄
On this hot Christmas Eve, Santa (aka our wonderful Donna 😆) treated us to some much-needed zooper doopers. The children were quick to spot the familiar face and loved every minute of it! Thanks for the sweet treat, Donna ❤️✨

Our friends had so much fun with this Christmas tree number-ordering activity! Using numbered strips, they carefully placed decorations in the correct order, practising number recognition and sequencing along the way. Lots of focus, problem-solving and confidence building - all wrapped up in a little Christmas magic 🤍🎄

We can’t wait to see you take on big school - you’re ready for it all 🌈🎓💛

🎄♥️ The Toddlers’ Christmas tree sensory tray invited the children to explore, create and play in a festive way. Using tweezers, they carefully picked up pom-poms and tiny candy canes, and enjoyed playing in the coloured rice. Every pinch and placement strengthened their fine motor skills while adding a little extra holiday magic to their day. ✨🎅

The Juniors’ messy play sensory tray turned into a full Christmas potion lab! 🎄🧪 We explored colours, textures and cause-and-effect while mixing up our magical holiday creations. ✨
