Learning in Year 2 and Year 3

In Year 2s Unit of Inquiry titled “ How the world works”, we had a guest speaker named Caroline Tobing from Paisley Things. She talked to our students about her sustainable marketplace that supports local artisans. They use waste materials from hotels, the fabric industry, and businesses to create beautiful products. Year 3 and Year 5 students were also invited to the presentation and found it inspiring and educational.

As a year-end excursion, Year 2 and Year 3 visited XSprojek, a social and environmental organisation that turns industrial and community waste into everyday items. The students got to see how refillable pouches were cleaned and dried, and they witnessed the process of making washing baskets and bags.

These experiences helped our students understand the importance of repurposing waste and the value of sustainability in our world.
