Langley


Dear Langley Families and Friends,
For the first week of the holidays we took it easy, after an exhausting weekend of Easter Celebrations. We transformed our sleep room into a ‘home’ with a kitchen, lounge room and babies to care for. The children really loved this room and relaxing in this quiet space.

We took advantage of the ‘Big Boys’ being on holiday and decided to go on a nature walk, taking along our toilet roll binoculars - watching, listening and chatting about the birds in the trees.
Here are some of the observations that where shared by some of the children.

Lexie – “The things to look in the eyes.”
Andrew – “Birdy eyes”

Charlie – “I can see birdy.”

Andrew – “look where the bird.”

Sebastian – “I can see rain.”

Theodore – “I see the moon.”

Week two was just as exciting as week one. There have been some fun and exciting additions added into the room, such as our new market stall fully stocked with the freshest fruit and veg, and the best coffee on offer! This week we continued our quest to find wildlife around the school grounds, and happened to stumble across a construction site along the way. The children were hugely excited about the trucks and diggers and reflected on what was taking place.
Ryan- “A rerry big digger”

Henry- “Digger, digger,digger.”

Paxton-“Digger pull.”

Marcel-“WOW, da house.”

Nyanwell-“He’s fixing it.”

Zara-“Bashing.”

Henry-“I fink the truck is pulling down that.”

Have a great weekend everyone, and we will see you next week for the start of Term Two.
Miss Emily, Miss Brooke and Miss Renee.
