Dove Puppets

For many years now our pre-kinder children have enjoyed a delightful puppet show by Puppeteer Jeanette Drummond of Dove Puppets.

Jeanette is a wonderful story teller who captures the children’s imaginations the moment she ventures behind her screen and raises the curtain to begin the show.

A very popular show we look forward to enjoying with the children at this time of year is Jeanette’s Christmas story  …

Jeanette’s enthusiasm and amazing ability to entertain along with her beautiful puppets, theatre, and props, keeps the children’s attention and interest throughout the entire show.

Wisely, Jeanette has a short break during the show where she connects with the children in a hands on session which includes inviting the children to feed her cow…

With Christmas and the end of the kinder year so close we find that Jeanette’s Christmas story a wonderful way to introduce the children to the Christmas season.
