The littlest learners of the Burdekin Shire came together for an enriching morning of fun, bubbles and laughter at Maidavale State School’s (MSS) 2025 Under 8’s Day on Thursday, the 29th of May.
Approximately 60 children and their families transformed the school grounds into a vibrant hub overflowing with excited mini scientists ready to unleash “scientific thinking through play” – the 2025 theme of the annual event.
Volcanos were created and potions were concocted whilst giant bubbles flew through the sky as children engaged in dramatic science play right through until lunch time. The morning’s happenings were accompanied by special guests like Play2Learn Burdekin and Lower Burdekin Landcare who hosted enriching and educational activities for the children to enjoy.
Complete with a relaxing Mums & Bubs section where parents were able to sit under the shady trees, reading or enjoying quiet activities with their children, the day was a delightful occasion for the entire family.
With plenty of exciting events spread across the school’s 2025 calendar, preparations have been in full swing ahead of next week’s Maidavale State School Open Morning set for Thursday the 19th of June.
“Be sure to pop out for a visit and experience the enchanting Maidavale Magic,” invited Maidavale State School Teacher Aide, Madison Robertson.
