Richmond Playcentre visit - 18 October 2016

The heavy steady rain didn’t deter the willingness of the Richmond Playcentre families to explore and get out in nature at the Southland Community Nursery.

The children potted up cabbage trees enjoying scooping up the dirt and patting it down.  They loved the trolley that the re-potted plants went into.

The puzzles of the butterfly and the spider saw group cooperation and problem solving, the bug hunt saw the children observing the insects and how to keep them safe before returning them to their natural home, and the walk in the bush provided a sensory experience. A wet visit, but so such fun to catch raindrops on tongues! Bronwyn
