Art Club visit SA Art Gallery

This week, the Year 5/6 Art Club enjoyed a day at the SA Art Gallery where they learnt about the Art displayed in the gallery, the purpose of Art and how Art contributes to society. Students also took part in a workshop where they explored different artworks and recreated their styles. The students in the Art Club really enjoyed this opportunity as it extended their view and love of Art further.

Little Giggles Playdate with Prescott

On Monday this week, Prescott hosted a special playdate with the Little Giggles Playgroup in our Nature Playground. There were stations set up for the little ones to explore, play, create and get messy! It was fantastic to see the little ones from playgroup enjoy our space and create some wonderful memories together. We will be running a similar event for local community playgroups later on in the term – keep an eye out for the advertising for this event in our newsletter so you can invite friends and family with under school age children along to enjoy some of the great spaces we have to offer at PPN.

Health and Vitality

Health and vitality are the results of small choices and small habits that accumulate over time. What small choices can we make to reconnect with health and vitality? The simple pleasures in life are often the most rewarding and plentiful when building health and vitality. At Prescott Primary Northern we have the pleasure of gardening and growing our food. This process introduces to students the basic elements that build life. These elements include soil, water, pollinators, vegetation, and organic matter. Students can observe and utilise the natural cycles that have been set in motion by our Creator. Fresh food that is sustaining and nourishing for the body and the mind can be harvested and shared with those that we care about. The simple act of preparing a nutritious meal shoulder to shoulder with the ones we care about and then sharing that healthy food is a pleasure. Through nature play, students also have the opportunity to engage actively and respond to the natural elements around them. These beautiful calm spring days have provided students with the ideal setting for exploration and the development of the mind and body and the opportunity to build a connection with the Creator. This week I encourage you to choose health and vitality with your family. Start with the small choices and build from there.
