These two patches were made by EC students at Gordon PS. Both boys fell off their bikes and needed medical attention. Both were grateful that their parents cared for them and took them to a Doctor who knew how to make them better. A small blessing from the upsetting events were that both boys had an ice cream after the incident. I had to check - they don’t just get ice cream when they are injured. Whew. Made from fabric paint on calico/old sheets. Approx size 40 x 40cm.
23. Not until I'm bigger. A Gordon PS EC student told me about how he was playing at the Gordon playground on the BIG slide when he was much younger. He fell off! His brother rushed to tell his mum, then she rushed him to the Doctor. The Doctor said he was ok – but that he was not allowed on the slide again until he was much bigger. The student was thankful that the doctor said he was ok. Some years later (when he was bigger) he went down the slide safely – and it was fun this time. Made from fabric paint on calico. Approx size 40 x 40cm.

An EC student at Gordon PS has a bearded dragon lizard called Ringo. The student got him on his birthday and can now hold him whenever he wants to. "He came home in a little box and we put him in a tank that we had ready” Looking after Ringo makes him feel joyful. Ringo is really special "because he doesn’t try to run away when he is held". Made from fabric paint on calico. Approx size 40 x 40cm.
