Wilkins

Dear Wilkins families and friends,

This week we have been on a few adventures.

We have enjoyed riding bikes and scooters in the ELC car park where the children were able to ride and push their scooters around in an open but protected space. The children were very excited about this activity and enjoyed sharing this experience with their peers. They were amazing with their riding skills, with so many that were quick and riding faster as they became more comfortable with the carpark area. There was lots of laughing out loud and shouting while they rode.

It was great to have Ms Tamara from Animal Anonymous come to the Langley room to talk about Australia’s animals. Ms Tamara brought many kinds of animals to show the children, such as Stimson python, possum, parrot, velvet gecko, bettong and a small crocodile. The children were thrilled to see the different animals and Ms Tamara gave children turns to touch each animal.  Most of the children were very brave to touch the snakes and the other animals.

It was great to see children enjoying an amazing riding experience and to learn about different Australian animals first-hand.



We hope you have a safe and joyful weekend.

Miss Ellen, Miss Courtenay and Miss Melissa
