We recommend for future use for other centres. Thanks a heap for a great morning! Alpha Beta Kindergarten College Lots of activities for (the) children to experiment with. The presenter gained the children's attention quickly, with a good mix of presenting and time for individual experiences. Plenty of teaching opportunities and engaging for the students.
