Due to COVID-19 many families have elected to keep their children at home, and St Nicholas educators have began delivering online videos to help keep children feel connected, entertained and to promote continued learning.
Lucy Faithfull is an educator St Nicholas Early Education Lochinvar, and was recently filmed while baking banana muffins so the video could be shared with children watching on from home. In the video, Lucy encourages the children to cook at home with their parents and demonstrates the correct way to wash their hands.
If you or your children would like to watch the video to get some baking inspiration head to stnicholasmn.org.au
