Cooper Room




This week we welcomed our new children and their families to the Cooper Room. The children were keen to explore their new room and meet new friends and teachers. As everyone settled in, and as part of our Who We Are inquiry unit, the children looked at mirrors and at photos of themselves and drew self portraits in black pen.
"Look at me! Look at you Jack, I'm showing you" said Ammar holding the mirror up for Jack.
"I look in the mirror - my eyes and my nose and my hair" noticed Oliver.
"Looks like Sabian" said Sabian.
"I'm big!" exclaimed Spencer.
We have also enjoyed hearing about the children's photo pages from home, which they have been sharing with the group, and have found out about their families, pets, holidays and favourite toys - a big thank you to the mums and dads for helping with this homework!
Kind regards,
Ali and Coral
