Langley

Dear Langley families,

We have ventured to letter-land this week. The children have continued to practice their writing skills with chalk and textas as they look at their name cards and letters on the wall, and have been printing with letter shaped sponges. We have also used our name cards at group times to help us take turns into the bathroom to wash our hands. Some children have begun to make the connection between words being made up of letters - amazing literacy skills!

It was a performing arts kind of week as we had a special performance from "SeaStar Rock" on Tuesday and Dancify came to an end. At both sessions children displayed all their action, movement and dance skills. Thank you Miss Erin and the SeaStar Rock team!

Finally, this week marks the end of Term 2! This also means that many of our Langley friends only have a few more weeks with us before they move classrooms. We would like to wish Sebastian A, Sebastian B, Joshua, Xavier, Isaac B, Linda, Isaac C, Declan, Larissa, Ed, Grace, Ned and James every success as they continue on to their next learning journey in the Cooper room!

During the Winter program, the Langley team plan to create a rainbow collage with the children as they have shown a keen interest in the changing weather and rainbows over the last few weeks. We ask that you dress your child in particular colours on the following dates so all can be included:

Monday 4th July - RED 
Wednesday 6th July - ORANGE
Friday 8th July - YELLOW
Tuesday 12th July - GREEN
Thursday 14th July - BLUE
Monday 18th July - INDIGO
Friday 22nd July - VIOLET         

Have a great week


Sarah, Brooke, Emily and Renee
