Child Studies Incursion

On Wednesday students in both the Year 9 and 10 Child Studies elective classes had the opportunity to experience a real-life workshop of how to care for a 6-month old baby. This was carried out by Mr Weir’s wife Ashlee and her 2 daughters Daisy and Mila.

Year 9 Child Studies have recently been learning about newborn growth and development and nutritional requirements. The students were very excited and enjoyed asking questions and observing how to bathe, change and feed a 6- month old baby. This practical experience was very valuable to the student’s learning as it gave them some real-life experience.

Both Year 9 and 10 were very appreciative and grateful for the opportunity and expressed their passion for one day wanting to work with children for their careers.
