04 Oct Learning Journeys: Bond Over Play (13 September 2019)
[Learning Journey]
Friday, 13th September 2019
During the September school holidays, we took a trip to Admiralty Park to bond over play. The children were told to bring their own snacks. Though not all could afford to bring their own food, they ended up with enough to feed everyone. It was heartening to see them bring enough for their friends to share. The playground is a child’s temple. It is a place to run without being yelled at, to get scrapes and not care, and to imagine limitlessly. Kids on a playground are just like people living their lives. The exhilarating moments on the swings and the liberating experiences on the huge and long slides were perfect for bonding through play.
