At Bardon Kindy we learn about the rich culture of Australia’s First Nations peoples in many ways including expressing ideas through art. Connecting with traditional Aboriginal symbols, children have created paintings inspired by stories of connection, land, and community. National Reconciliation Week is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories and cultures—and to work together towards a more unified future. Let’s keep listening, learning, and creating together 🖤💛❤️ #earlychildhoodeducation #playbasededucation #BardonKindy #creativekids #earlylearning #brisbanekindy #kindergarten #communitykindy #gowrieqld #ladygowrieqld #brisbanekindergartens #bardoncommunitykindy #NRW2025
At Bardon Kindy, we’re proud of the strong, reciprocal partnerships we’ve built with our local primary schools. These connections help us support each child’s unique journey as they prepare for the transition to school. From shared events to meaningful conversations with teachers, we’re committed to ensuring children feel confident, connected, and ready for the next step. #BardonKindy #TransitionToSchool #CommunityConnections #EarlyLearning #communitykindergarten #earlychildhoodeducation
Today our kindy community came together to march to the 2025 ANZAC day ceremony held at Bardon Bowls Club. We pay our respects and gratitude to those who served and continue to serve our nation. And we thank the Brisbane Thistle Bagpipe Band (which includes one our kindy teachers Matt) for leading us in this important annual tradition. #AnzacDay2025 #LestWeForget #Bardonkindy #ladygowrieqld #communitykindergarten #bardon
Happy Last Day of Term 1! The creative Bardon Kindy children have had a wonderful time exploring clay to create personalised decorations to celebrate the season! 🎨🐇 Their handmade treasures are full of love, color, and Easter joy. Wishing all our families a joyful and relaxing Easter! 🌷✨ #HappyEaster #BardonKindy #CreativeKids #earlychildhoodeducation #ladygowrieqld #playbasededucation
For our final week of term 1 we have been very fortunate to welcome Jess/Yirri for a workshop with the children, sharing aspects of Aboriginal culture, perspectives and knowledge. Jess is a Wiradjuri Gamilaraay woman and daughter of Aunty Sharron mirii Bell (the founder of 'Indigenous Insights'). The children loved meeting Jess, moving together like emus and kangaroos whilst developing their understanding about how dance and song tells a story. They explored traditional artefacts such as kangaroo skin cloaks/blankets and observed traditional practices such as grinding ochre (then mixing it with water) to use as ceremonial body paint which Jess painted on her skin to reflect her emu/dinawan totem. Jess reminded us about sustainability too, and only taking what we need. Thankyou Jess for sharing this workshop and beginning the children's cultural journey, whilst also reminding us that not all First Nation people live in traditional ways. Making authentic connections and building relationships is key to embracing and embedding First Nation perspectives at Bardon Kindy. #earlychildhoodeducation #bardonkindy #bardon #earlylearning #brisbanekindy #ladygowrieqld
