Angwin

Dear Angwin families and friends,

We have had a busy but awesome start to the Summer holidays. Though we had friends who said goodbye for the year, it's  good to know we still have many friends to spend the rest of the year with.
The children really enjoyed their fun wet and wild water play getting soaked, splashed and squirted ( even Mrs Rocca wasn't safe at all !). They enjoyed making muddy puddles and volcanos in the sandpit.
William and Ethan even showed their friends how to  make a volcano erupt and release red lava with bi carb soda and vinegar.
On Wednesday, the children shared their favourite Christmas stories when they brought their Christmas books from home. This sparked an interest in reindeers among the children.
"Reindeers help pull Santa's sleigh", said William.
"Yeah! To deliver all the presents", added Aiden.
"In all over the world", said Sam
"They have to be very strong and have to eat a lot of carrots", thought Leon.
Because of this interest, the children decided to watch "Flight Before Christmas" on our movie day with lots of yummy popcorn.
We have been watching cricket games on the oval as well and loving our races and playground play.
We have also been doing cosmic kids yoga and this week we met Tiny the T-rex and he showed us many of his yoga moves and learnt them ourselves.

We are looking forward to spending the last week before the year ends.

Please remember the following dates and activity:

17th Thursday WHEELS DAY!- bring a bike or a scooter for your child to ride. make sure to bring their helmets too for the whole feel of it! we will block off the ELC carpark to accommodate for this activity.

18th Friday WET and WILD Water Play Day- pack a swim gear or spares and a towel to enjoy a soaking on a warm beach weather.

Looking forward to next week already 😊


Coney and Faye
