At Horizon Children’s Lab, children explored sustainability, pollution and the impact of everyday choices on our environment.
Using recycled plastic materials, they transformed waste into colourful handmade kites, discovering how creativity and small actions can make a big difference 💛

A wonderful morning welcoming our Founding FS2 Families to the Horizon Parent Experience Centre ✨
It was wonderful to connect with families in a relaxed setting, while giving parents the opportunity to meet other families.
The beginning of many new friendships within our growing Horizon community.
