From Waiben Prep, Mrs. Alex Peacocke

What a brilliant start to 2025 for a bright and sparkling group of preps! We have 11 students in our 2025 prep class, and they are all enthusiastic learners who love coming to school and learning new things every day. Over the past month, we have begun to get to know one another and get to know the Heart Way – where we all strive to be kind, safe, responsible and respectful. The preps manage to do this AND have a lot of fun every day. Swimming lessons with Mr Lochie have been a highlight of our term and so has time with our grade 6 buddies. 

We have also been having some special parties to celebrate learning our letters and sounds. We have a secret code to get in (say the letter sound and write down the letter), and can only eat, drink and do things that begin with the letter when we get inside. At the M party, milo and muffins were on the menu, while we played with the marble run and magnetic blocks, coloured in mermaids and watched Moana! We have also been learning all about our family tree and have created a family forest with all our new friends in our class. I can’t wait to see how these 11 students continue to grow this year!
