With NAPLAN and the Sacrament of Reconciliation behind us, Year
3 are now looking for donations to stock our Design Hub. The Design Hub is a
place where the students will nurture their curiosity and creativity to solve
hands-on problems.
To fill our Design Hub with suitable materials, we require
each family to be on the look out for the following or similar items:
·
Cardboard: boxes, sheets, tubes, toilet rolls
·
Paper: construction, wrapping, patterned, tissue, bags,
cups,
plates, newspaper, magazines, cards, envelopes, cardstock
·
Wood: popsicle sticks, skewers, wood scraps, dowels,
toothpicks,
·
Metals: broken parts of household items, hardware, paper fasteners,
pipe cleaners, foil, craft wire
·
Plastic: straws, bowls, lids, containers, stir sticks,
·
Small hard items: rice, beans, pasta, buttons, beads,
·
Small soft items: cotton balls, pom poms
·
Fabric: scraps, socks, felt, ribbon, netting, mesh,
·
Other: craft foam, Styrofoam shapes, stuffing, feathers,
elastic
bands, clamps, string, wool, rope
·
Adhesive: glue, masking tape, clear tape, electrical tape,
duct tape
I will have tubs ready on Monday to separate the different
materials. I don’t expect any of you to go and purchase anything as I am hoping
we will have many items (which would normally go into our recycling bins) at
our disposal.
Thank you and enjoy your weekend!
Mr Jones
