Big Boys Breakfast
After weeks of preparation we finally shared our special breakfast with our Dads on Wednesday morning to celebrate upcoming Father’s Day. We shared some favourite songs, including Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes in Pitjantjatjara and then enjoyed a breakfast of yummy pancakes with syrup, jam and cream. We were thrilled so many dads could join us and share this important day. We hope they all left with a full tummy and affirmed feeling of the important place they have in their child’s life.
As part of our work to prepare for Big Boys Breakfast, students used images of children painting in the APY lands as inspiration for their father’s gift. We talked about the similarities and differences between going to school at PAC and going to school in the town of Freegon (inspired by the pictures of Mrs McGee from her time there)
Dad’s and their children brought donations of hygiene products for us to send in the mail to the children in Freegon. Thankyou for your wonderful donations. The children were thrilled to sort through them and can’t wait to send them off. We will keep them until the end of the term when we will call for sporting donations as part of sports day.
Thankyou again for your attendance and generosity
We hope you have a wonderful Father’s Day on Sunday
