Langley
This week in Langley we have luckily had lots of time to play outside. We have brought in some small bikes and see-saws for the children to play with. We have observed them begin to experiment with the toys, as well as introducing safe play practices and the notion of sharing. By encouraging and modelling safe behaviour and helping the children to recognise other children wanting a turn, they are beginning to share the bikes more easily.

Mead
Dear Mead Parents,
This week we have started the weekly 'Show and Tell' roster which is working well and encouraging everyone to participate. We have shared everything from photos of Luke and his fireman experiences, stories of Louie's holiday in Queensland, Julian's favourite book about aeroplanes and a wealth of knowledge he knows, to wonderful rockets constructed by our budding scientist Regan!
We enjoyed seeing those of you who were able to make it to the Curriculum Evening.
Best wishes,
Emma, Susan and Amanda
Edgerley
This week in Edgerley we continued to talk about belonging together. We talked about what it means to be a friend….
Caleb: It is who you play with.
Henry N: Someone you like so much.
Cameron: They play with you lots of times.
Henry G: My brother is my friend.
Mitchell: He likes the same things as me.
Eric: You can play games with them. You can make different friends… you can make new friends. I have lots of new friends too.
Jake: Friends hug each other and they talk to each other. They laugh together too and have fun.
Christian: When I play with Jake he is sometimes joking.
Henry N.: I like all the boys in my class…
Chapple
Week four has been a great week in Chapple. Rev Mark came to play his didgeridoo for us, we had the whole school aerial photo and the weather was perfect for playing outside. Using shaving foam to practice writing our names was definitely a highlight!
Kind Regards
