Thank you to all who joined us to watch the Dance Concert last week. It was great to see so many families, your children put in many hours into rehearsals and I think it certainly paid off on the day. Thank you to the teachers also for all the behind the scene efforts, I think you would all agree that it was a wonderful event to be a part of.

On Wednesday, the Turtle and Lobster classes attended a performace at the primary school which aimed to start a converstation about treating each other with respect and kindness. Looking out out for our friends in the classroom and playground was a major focus which will provide further discussion points in our daily interactions with each other at the ELC.

Looking for something fun, creative and unique to do with your little one these school holidays? Jellybeanstreet Canberra are holding one hour fun painting workshops for children aged between 2-5, on Saturday 13 July at the Weston Creek Community Centre.  During the workshop, children will have the opportunity to interact with a variety of equipment and techniques to create a number of artworks. Our graphic design team then work their magic to combine elements of the children’s art to create high quality, one of a kind art pieces. These can be purchased and no doubt, will be a stunning addition to your wall.
