Dress-up box sparks students’ creativity
IMAGINATION and creativity play an important role in a child’s development and thanks to a “Dress-Up Box” donated by the Julatten Men’s Shed, students of Julatten State School can let their fantasies run wild during lunch times.
“Our students enjoy playing dress ups during lunch time and this addition of furniture will help to keep our costume pieces organised and easy to find,” principal Sarah Mason said.
“I was delighted to hear about the project and was very grateful to the volunteers of the Julatten Men’s Shed for their time and effort to create such a beautiful piece of furniture for our junior students.
“We love to share and acknowledge the amazing community spirit that we have in Julatten,” she said.
The Julatten Men’s Shed, and student Archie Snook who also volunteers at the Men’s Shed with his grandfather, recently constructed a recycled-timber dress-up box and donated it to their local school for its students to use at lunch times.
In their appreciation, the school presented Men’s Shed member Russell Snook with a certificate of appreciation during their weekly parade when the dress-up box was unveiled.
