The kids kicked things off by helping to set the boundaries of our outdoor play area. From there, they dove right into the fun! They climbed tree logs, dug in the dirt and mud, explored the fascinating world of insects, and even enjoyed some reading time surrounded by nature.
Seeing their enthusiasm and curiosity as they connect with the great outdoors is incredible.

Pre-Prep students all in chapel

This past Tuesday, our Pre Prep students experienced an uplifting first all-in chapel filled with joy and essential lessons. Mrs. Brunea delivered a heartfelt message to the children, emphasising Jesus's profound love for each of them and the significance of friendship. Her warm words resonated with the students, encouraging them to cherish their connections with one another.

The highlight of the chapel was the energetic chapel song, "Who is the King of the Jungle?" The children's laughter and enthusiasm filled the room as they danced and sang along, making it a truly memorable moment. This event allowed the students to bond with their peers and reinforced the values of faith and friendship in a fun and engaging way.
We look forward to many more inspiring chapels in the future as our Pre Prep community continues to grow together in faith and friendship.
