Stage 2 Child Studies
In Stage Two Child Studies, students delve into diverse topics focussed on children aged 5-8. They design healthy school lunch boxes, learn about children with special needs, create storybooks, and develop donation gifts for children. Additionally, they collaborate on a "Paddock to Plate" project, educating children about food origins and sustainability. Through action plans, practical applications, research tasks, and evaluations, students gain hands-on experience addressing contemporary issues in child development and care.
