Merriang School

Our Later Years students have been enjoying their weekly visits to Menshed every Thursday, taking part in a range of engaging hands-on activities.

Throughout the sessions, students have worked on planters, gardening projects, as well as painting, sanding, drilling, nailing, and constructing wooden boxes. During Term 2, they also created Mother's Day hearts, treasure boxes, cup coasters, and wooden toys, including assembling a wooden frog (pictured).

Students have thoroughly enjoyed these practical hands-on experiences and have demonstrated great focus, creativity, and skill in their work. 🔨🎨

🎪 The Connected Circus visited both campuses this week, bringing plenty of fun and excitement! Students loved trying their hand at hula hooping, twirling plates, balancing activities and more. It was wonderful to see everyone having a go, building confidence and sharing lots of smiles and laughter. 🤹‍♀️✨

Students from Early Years 5, 9 and 10 had a wonderful time visiting the Werribee Zoo yesterday! The weather was perfect for a stroll around the zoo and a ride on the safari bus. Seeing the lions, giraffes and gorillas was definitely a highlight of the day! 🦁🦒🦍
