In order to promote an inclusive and caring community, we held a Friendship Friday. We also learned values such as mutual respect. We created a Friendship Tree with kind words. The children identified, sorted, and categorised actions of a good friend and not a good friend. We went on a kindness scavenger hunt within Pre-School and the children also took home kindness scavenger hunt sheets. We worked in pairs to play collaboratively. The children created a friendship wreath with handprints. We investigated mixing colours with friendly high-fives.  The children were spotted demonstrating and naming friendly behaviour independently throughout the rest of the session. Parents were invited in on collection to share in what the children have learned.

In response to the arrival and imminent arrival of baby siblings, we had a babies week. We greatly appreciated visits and met some real-life babies. We also had great fun with various activities including:

• Buggy Races
• A face painting station with dolls
• Beat the timer baby wipes race

The activity that stayed most with the children was tasting baby food.

Thank you to our families for enabling older siblings to proudly share their news.
