ABORIGINAL FLAG ART
In Pre Kindy, we have started to explore the concept of the Aboriginal people being the First People of our land, through song, story, art, sensory play and mat discussions. We have particularly focused on the meaning of the flag, being the 'yellow for the sun', 'red for the desert' and 'black for the people'. On our 'school walks' we have walked around the school looking for our own flag that represents the Aboriginal people.
SAND ART
We have also engaged in the sensory fun of making some of their symbols in the sand to tell stories, using glue and sand to create our own 'storyboards' of these symbols. We will continue to explore and develop our understandings of our First Nations People over the coming weeks.
