Mead

Dear Mead Room families and friends,

This week we have observed new growth and destruction.  Whilst they are not normally two things that go together, we have been fortunate enough to have these opposites in our ELC environment. We continued to witness ‘the clues of Spring’;  blossom changing into leaves, our chicks spending the whole day outside in the chook run, and some of the days becoming just a little warmer.  

On the other hand we have observed monumental destruction over the road!  We have watched with interest the demolition of the buildings behind the ELC, and from a couple of vantage points, including our room, we have kept up-to-date with the process.  Vivienne thought one of the machines looked like it had a claw and Iverson exclaimed that it looked like a dinosaur!  We will see where this journey takes us!

Our Big Boys Breakfast was a fantastic celebration of all things fatherly!  The children and their big boys hammered, built, glued, read, explored, talked, ate and shared a wonderfully relaxing morning together.  Hope you all have a wonderful time on Sunday 3rd as well!!
  
Take care of each other,

Melissa and Georgia
