Kiara and Laura are passionate teachers!

Geraldton Toy Library and the "Tiny Scientist" Program

GUEST SPEAKERS:    This week the Club welcomed Laura Hurley and Kiara Jones from the Geraldton Toy Library.Laura and Kiara had two main reasons for joining us.   

The first was to update us with the Vision and Key objective of the Geraldton Toy Library.  A place for young parents to visit and bring their children and to enjoy many of the 800 toys available to take home on loan. You can find out more by tuning in to their website;

 HTTPS//www.geraldtontoylibrary.com.au

The second reason was to share with us some of the inspirational program and event they plan in support of the upcoming National Science Week. Their program is called, the “Tiny Scientists”

The event is targeted to age groups 0 to 8 and their parents and carers.  It is proposed that this event will be held on the Friday of Science Week in the Rocks Laneway Geraldton. It is a free event and the program will be led by Dallas Bruce who is the Science Teacher at Geraldton Grammar. Dallas will be supported by Science students from the school.       

Laura and thge BeeBot!

A copy of the working paper developed for the Tiny Scientists program is included in this edition of the Breeze newsletter.    Laura and Kiara will require some  financial support to supply display materials and  the handouts that will be given to participating families.

Whilst packing up after their presentation Laura and Kiara spoke to Pres. Phil about this. The program deserves support and I feel Pres. Phil was listening.
