Students begin by observing and drawing animals such as elephants, whales dolphins, dinosaurs, cats or mice. We’ll look at Dali’s elongated and exaggerated legs, etc and then get started on their creature. These will be added to backgrounds of inks and dyes that show ‘other worlds’. Students can choose to add them as a collage or re draw them into the landscape. Suitable for ages 6 - 12 years

The safety of the Residents of Acacia Cove is of the utmost importance to us. We are currently in the process of inspecting and servicing all smoke alarms in our existing dwellings to make sure they are all in working order.

Finally, our Residents and Staff’s health and wellbeing are equally important, and as the flu season is swiftly approaching we encourage our Residents and Staff to get their flu vaccinations at their earliest convenience. This can be done either on site by making an appointment with our Duty Nurse, or at their own doctor’s practice.

Maybe this can be a reminder for all the residents of Wattle Downs to make sure their smoke alarms are all in working order, and to book an appointment for their own flu vaccines at their health professional.
