Hi
Cooper families,
We
had quite an exciting week in the Cooper room this week. On Tuesday we were
lucky enough to have a special visit from Hamish’s Dad and Tim who brought in
an Ambulance to show the children. The children were able to go inside the
ambulance and see where “the sick people go to get to the hospital”. The
children had so much fun lying in the patients beds, sitting in the drivers
seats and even sliding down a slide on the back of the ambulance.
After
the visit we spoke about what ambulances do and the important job that we have.
These were some of the children’s responses:
Hamish
– They drive the Ambulance to the hospital.
Sebastien
Haskett – Hamish’s dad and Tim takes the sick people.
Struan
– They take the sick people. They put the sirens on…why?
Zara
– Because they are very noisy.
Rory
– they put the sirens on because it’s an emergency.
Sebastien
Haskett – Yes, that’s right Rory.
The
children loved the visit so much that we have had discussions about building
our own ambulance in the classroom!
Show
and tell has been going well the last 2 weeks. The children are very eager to
share what they have brought in from home, which is lovely to see. The children
are asking fantastic questions to the person that is sharing, which is demonstrating
their keen interest in the topics and the things that the children are sharing.
We
hope you have had a lovely week.
Love
Miss Gilbert and Miss C
