The new Prep students arrived on their first day of school with big smiles ready for their first day. While they were nervous they were still very excited for the day ahead. The children explored the classroom as their families settled them into the prep environment with their teachers. New friends were made quickly and the preps were eager to engage in a wide variety of activities. 

All children settled in really well and then it was time to say goodbye to their families who emotionally waved goodbye, feeling proud looking at their child all grown up. They read books, played games with their friends, participated in number games,  started doing some ‘prep work’ and went on a school tour to familiarise themselves with the school grounds. The students were lucky to be introduced to their buddy and were able to spend time chatting with them while they ate their snack from their special lunchboxes. They certainly enjoyed spending time with their buddy who made their play in the playground a fun and exciting experience. The students also completed a drawing about their first day to take home and show their families. Before we knew it the families were gathering outside the classrooms keen to find out all about their first day!

We are all so proud of our new prep students who had an amazing first day of prep and left with happy smiles excited to return next week! Your teachers Miss Rydberg, Miss Coon and Miss Connell are looking forward to an amazing year of learning and fun!
