Loose Parts in Kindy
Last week, we welcomed Jonny from Pause, Rewind, Play to introduce our Kindy students to his fantastic collection of pre-loved and repurposed 'loose parts'. Some of these parts included go-kart wheels, electronics, household items and building materials.
Our curious students were given the opportunity to have free play with the loose parts which encouraged them to explore, invent and create. This engaging incursion demonstrated the importance of play in children’s learning and development, while also lending itself perfectly to our Inquiry Learning pedagogy.
Our Kindy students treasured the pre-loved parts and had a great time inventing new uses for them. What a fantastic and sustainable way to play!
