2026 NRG (North Ryde Games) program has a number of changes this year (see timetable below). After considering the impact of weather, cost and parent feedback we are shifting to an all in Science session With Mr Chappell & friends (Basecamp Discovery) at North Ryde Public from 9:20-10:45am, and new teen led afternoon program (every student will participate in each ‘skill builder’ activity), and a final all in show in the church playground with drama, singing, stories and puppets commencing at 2:20 before pickup 3pm. Parents (and siblings) are encouraged to attend this new outdoor 2:20pm session, with seating available (weather permitting). Each morning, every child will build one of 6 experiments, which they will get to keep – over $100 value. Each experiment will explore a theme of God’s good design and be accompanied with songs, drama, and Mark Rober Video Content (Courtesy Class Crunch labs). These sessions will encourage peer learning, and work with all learning styles and interests! Mr Chappell is a trained Physics & Chemistry teacher, but he would love additional adult help with the new morning session. If you would like to help, and have or are willing to obtain both WWCC and safe ministry training, please call him on 0403 812 782. The projects will be challenging for younger children, but we are asking the stage three children to assist their younger peers, and also adult helpers.
