Dear Mattingley families and friends,
This week we have continued to
explore our bodies through dramatic play in our Doctor/Hospital area. On Friday
we were lucky enough to have one of our fantastic parents Chin Po, who is a
Doctor come in to talk with the children about going to a Doctor's surgery and
showed us some of the instruments that she uses to check our bodies when we are
unwell. The children really enjoyed her visit and the information she
shared with them really sparked their discussions and their play in the
dramatic play area.
Over the remainder of the term
will we be focusing on our two PYP topics which are 'Celebrations' and 'Body
and mind'. If you would like to come and visit our class to share your
expertise or your celebrations with us we would love to have you and will make
you feel very welcome. Please just let either myself or Coral know to arrange a
time.
Just to let you know that we have
managed to pick up an extra Chinese lesson on Thursday mornings between
9am-9.30am. The children have really been engaging in their lessons with Laoshi
and are excited to learn new Chinese words.
Just a quick reminder that Monday
is a public holiday and the centre will be closed. We will be back to business
as usual on Tuesday.
We hope you all enjoy your long
weekend.
Kimberley and Coral
