Year 10 Child Studies

During Term 2, year 10 Child Studies class has been learning about Newborn Care. In Newborn Care, students have had the opportunity to practice some basic parenting skills. Mrs Borg brought some dolls to class that are the same size as a newborn and students have been learning such skills as wrapping a baby, how to change a baby's nappy and safe sleep practices.

Below are some thoughts from students in Mrs Borg’s class about this learning experience:

“I really enjoyed having hands-on opportunities to help us practise some basic parenting skills as simple as wrapping babies and changing their nappies. The baby dolls are roughly the same size of an average baby making it seem realistic.”- Kelsie Guerrero. 

"Childs Studies is a subject that provides good opportunities for students, especially those interested in learning more about children and their wellbeing." - Patricia Tuazon 

Thanks to Mrs Borg for providing this valuable and enjoyable learning opportunity for our students.
