Over term 2, Class 4-5 were very fortunate to be able to participate in a series of watercolour workshops with local artist and Kindlehill parent, Sarah Leibman. Sarah generously shared her expertise as a professional artist, guiding the children through a rich artistic process that wove together observation, imagination, and technique. From sketching scenes inspired […]
Last week, after a term of their practice schedule, most of our primary school children took part in an interschool chess competition. Teams were matched with similar ability, which made for some exciting and well-balanced games. Some of the most fun moments came when we were paired against our own school mates. There were lots […]
Class 4-5 went on camp to Booderee National Park on Yuin Country for their lesson on plants. The weather was perfect, and the place was teeming with wildlife. We snorkeled and swam and drifted in utter bliss on those soft waves lapping onto the pristine beaches. More importantly we challenged ourselves, deepened our understanding of […]
Last week, on a beautifully drizzly and misty day, class 4-5 took our first outdoor education excursion with Lachlan, walking the South Lawson Waterfall Circuit. He had some very strong objectives for the children, and they did so well with them all! The children were all assigned roles including navigator, leader and tail end. They […]

In our last lesson together, we chose trees that were an appropriate height and in a safe location […]

We chatted and played games on the train and caught connections at Parramatta. We played tip in Hyde Park and had a fun workshop about classification of insects. We used insect adaptation to […]
This term in Class 3 – 4, we have had the privilege of working with Kiara to make some gorgeous felt dolls. The children have designed and begun to sew their very own unique dolls, and each doll is taking on its own character stitch-by-stich. Handwork is a core part of the Steiner curriculum and […]
What an adventure we have had on camp. Class 3 – 4 did their first 2 night camp and ventured out to Ganguddy, Dunn Swamp. We were delighted to drive through rocky pagodas and arrive at our serene camping spot, with lots of big gum trees, hugged on one side by a big rocky cliff […]
Some of the children were nervous, some were overexcited, some were shy, and some were coming out of their shell for the first time. But all of the children worked together to make the play special, and I really enjoyed seeing what each of them brought to the stage.
