🐠 THANK YOU 🐟

To Mo & Dan - parents of Frankie & Sidney - for our new, even-bigger fish tank! We’re looking forward to welcoming more beautiful fish to The Hive - the kids really do love to spend time watching them, feeding them and learning how to to care for them.

WHAT HAVE THE KIDS BEEN UP TO…?

  • In ART & CRAFT CLUB we saw the most amazing range of activities and skills on show this fortnight - wooden flowers, homemade bracelets, mono-prints, pottery, calligraphy, self portraits, macrame and more! Such a wonderfully creative bunch of bees!

  • our energetic bees were super busy in SPORTS CLUB, honing their skills in archery, volleyball, skipping, Oztag, hockey, gymnastics plus of course, the uber-popular SKATE SCHOOL!!

    • Remember, we offer separate sports activities for YK-1, and Y2+, to keep things safe for our littlest bees 👍👍

  • In BAKING CLUB, our little chefs made their own curly pretzels and choc chip muffins - it doesn’t get more yummy than that!!!

  • Little scientists were busy this fortnight in EXPLORE & DISCOVER CLUB, as we created our own puffy paint and rainbow sugar scrub!
