Zippy's Bush Kindy - Term 4 'I am a Bushland Superhero'

‘I am a Bushland Superhero'

Join Zippy the Dragonfly on a journey of discovery during a 60-minute session each week over an 8-week term.  We welcome new Bush Kindy explorers together with children continuing on from previous terms.

Who can safely cross a creek? Who can read the clouds in the sky? Who can help the plants to grow? It's … YOU! Our Bushland Superhero!

This term is all about developing children’s bush skills to confidently play in and care for the bushland environment. This will involve experiences which promote autonomy, resilience, and problem-solving such as climbing, walking along bush trails, obstacle courses and tackling different surfaces and structures. Children will also participate in group activities to develop their teamwork skills (sharing and cheering).

During Term 4 Bush Kindy children will:

• practice bush skills such as using simple maps, creating useful objects with natural materials, plant and animal identification and weather observation

• participate in physical challenges such as climbing, balancing, and navigating different surfaces to further enrich their explorations

• meet some special bushland superheroes (people, plants, and animals)

• continue to observe the seasonal changes in the environment and learn about ways to care for the bush

• increase their understanding of Noongar language

• grow in empathy and love of nature
