Exciting Outside Play

Hi parents and Caregivers, This morning we went to our new sandpit and water play area. We were learning to talk about what we were doing and how we were doing the activity. Some questions we were asked was: 'Tell me what you did that was exciting?', and 'Can you tell me how you made this?'. We had a lot of fun talking to our friends and getting to know our classmates. Thank you, Nikki & Sarah

Welcome to School!

Hi Parents and Caregivers, Welcome back to school today. It was lovely to meet all the new children and their parents. We had a very exciting day and got to play a game with Room 19. We read the story "Off goes the hose" by Joy Cowely. This story introduced us to water and hoses. Then we went outside to play a game and acted out a fish, boat, hose, and shark. Later in the day we watched "Sink or Float" By Cookie Monster and learnt about items that sink or float. This is our topic for term one, learning about items that sink or float and water saftey. http://www.sesamestreet.org/games#media/game_d1c1f2a5-12ee-4812-b39c-3aefff4d0aac Thank you for a great first day, Nikki Watson and Sarah Ellis Can you spot yourself in the photos below:
