Celebrating our Dads

2 September 2022

Campbell House was buzzing with excitement this week as the children welcomed their dads for our Father’s Day celebrations. These occasions are always a wonderful opportunity for the children and their parents to spend a very special time together.

Each class hosted a special celebration where the children and their dads enjoyed spending time together at the ELC. They spent time engaging in special projects, enjoying stories, singing, and sharing their learning journals.

Much planning had gone into the event as the children discussed their ideas, prepared beautiful invitations, planned activities, and rehearsed songs. Special gifts had been lovingly prepared by the children and were presented to the dads.

It is always wonderful to see and hear the delight in the children as they share this time with their dads.

Here, the children share their thoughts about what they love about their dads…

Daisy: I love my Daddy because he tickles and cuddles me. I like it when we play games, go to the shops, and sometimes go for a babycino together.

Louis: I love my Daddy because we both go for the same footy team – Carlton. We watch them play footy on the TV. I like it when we play pillow fights.

Scarlett: I love Daddy because he plays ‘Monsters’ with me and jumps on the trampoline with me. Daddy gives me piggyback rides on his shoulders. We like being starfish together.

Alex K: Daddy and I do everything together. He is really good at building things…tall things and up to space.

Jack M: My Dad works in the city; he works very hard.

Alexander M: Papai likes to drink champagne and eat spaghetti bolognese.

Emma: I love my Dad and he cuddles me every night.

Jack R: My Dad takes me for lovely walks, and he takes me to lovely places.
