Wonderschool Woden - 🌿✨ Mirror & Nature Play ✨🌿
During our community walks, the children have shown a growing interest in nature, pointing out trees, flowers, and leaves. They’re also fascinated by reflections they spot along the way.
To build on this curiosity, Cindy extended the children’s learning with a mirror play experience that Karma set up. Using flowers and herbs, the children explored colours, textures, and reflections from different angles.

They were excited and confident, noticing beautiful details in both nature and their own reflections. 💚

Wonderschool Monash - What a beautiful Saturday at Wonderschool Monash! 🌱

Our families and educators came together to plant an incredible 1,600 perennial bulbs, generously donated by Floriade.

Each year, Floriade distributes a share of its flowers to community groups who plant and care for them in everyday public spaces, and we are so grateful to be part of this wonderful initiative.

It was beautiful to see our community working side by side, creating something special for the children to watch, care for and enjoy in the months ahead. We look forward to seeing these bulbs come to life in Spring, filling our garden with colour, beauty and a reminder of what we can grow together. 🌷

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us and to Floriade for this generous donation. 💚

Wonderschool Monash - We are excited to introduce our new Wonderschool Monash Community Library!

The purpose of the library is to encourage a love of reading, storytelling, and shared learning experiences between children and their families. Reading together helps build language, imagination, confidence and connection, and we are delighted to create another opportunity for the children to explore books both at the Centre and at home.

Our Community Library is available now and will operate on a simple borrowing system:

- The children may choose a book to take home and enjoy with their family.

- Please return borrowed books on your next day of attendance so other families can enjoy them too.

- Families are welcome to donate used children's books to help our collection continue to grow!

We encourage families to spend time reading together each day, even if only for a few minutes. Listening to stories, talking about the illustrations, and sharing favourite books with one another can create meaningful learning moments and lifelong memories.
