Perth Teacher Training College: Seasonal Haikus

The Early Childhood Teacher Training students from SIF - 'Stepping Into the Future’ in Perth undertook to connect with their local landscape and seasonal changes through the elements, the festivals, their craft story and circles. 

They entered the movements in nature by listening. 

Through their listening the students created haikus to express the essence of their experience imaginatively. They built up a deep sense of the six Noongar seasons out of which they can create their own work for the kindergarten.
