Year 4 Zoo Snooze

Last week, our Year 4 classes took turns sleeping with the animals at the Adelaide Zoo. The ZooSnooze is an overnight experience that includes education sessions highlighting important animal and habitat conservation issues – and a very exciting first school camp for our students. The classes got to see the animals close-up and take part in an exciting night walk when no one else is about. From all reports, it was a roar-ing success!

Mural Brings Community Together

Our students have literally left their mark on PPN, with their handprints forming the centrepiece of a new mural in the Natural Play Space.

Indigenous artist, Phil Allen (who is also the father of Mrs Daian from FC), created the bright artwork to depict how a wide range of communities come together to form our PPN family.

Our student’s handprints are visible in the river that flows towards PPN in the top right of the mural.

Thank you Phil, we are so blessed to have this stunning piece in our school!

Playdate with Prescott

It may have been chilly and threatening to rain but the allure of cubby building, nature play as well as hot drinks and a pancake breakfast didn’t stop lots of our Playdate with Prescott regulars and some welcomed new faces from enjoying a Family Playdate in our beautiful nature play space last weekend. The event provided an opportunity for parents, grandparents and extended families, that are usually unable to come along to a Playdate to get involved and experience all that was on offer.

Amazing cubby creations and vehicles were built with the loose parts kindly provided by Climbing Tree, nature inspired family portraits were carefully designed and rocks were painted with colourful designs as part of the Kindness Project.

The hot drinks and pancakes were popular and provided energy for an all in Hokey Pokey to finish off a wonderful morning of family connection, nature play and community.
