Langley Room





Dear Langley Family and Friends,
We have continued our inquiry about homes this week, introducing more sea creatures to our water play. We have also eagerly been looking at and talking about our own homes and the features of them, with a strong focus on the people who live in our homes with us. After examining our photographs of our homes, we have been creating black line images on them to share with others. The children have also initiated house building in the outside environment using the large wooden blocks.
“It’s a castle” explained Jada as she stacked the blocks one on top of another,
“We making a house, we making my house” Dougal joined in,
“What’s that part?” questioned the teacher,
“It’s the rubbish bin” replied Jada,
“This part is going to go here” Dougal commented as he added more blocks.

We hope that you have all found the Big Boys Breakfast information and surveys in your pigeon holes. Can you please RSVP and return your surveys as soon as possible so that we can continue to prepare the children for this special event.

Best wishes,
Jess, Kerry, Amelia and Nicole
