Dear Parents,
We have another creature in residence in the Mead Room - a cheerful, chirpy, yellow Canary. He is a little spoilt and partial to boiled eggs, broccoli and milk arrowroot biscuits! Our feathered visitor has lead us into more discussions about animals and their homes.
"It's home is a cage" - Jacob
"It has a bath in it" - Izabella
"But it hasn't got a towel. maybe it just shakes itself (dry). And it has a ladder to climb up to the stick" - Luca
"If it was outside it would fly away" - Sebastian
"Yes, we would never see that bird again" - Luca
"We put it in the cage so it wont fly away and to protect it from the people" - Jacob
"It poo on it's egg - Yuck!" - Raphael
"I no poo on my food" - Eden
"Do all birds live in a cage?" - asked the Teacher
"Some live outside" - Jacob
"Some live in a house" - Luca
"Some live in a nest" - Sebastian
"That bird doesn't have a nest, 'cos he needs to stay there. 'Cos it's not safe outside. The children will get him" - Izabella
"Home" - Adu
Best wishes,
Emma, Susan, Cristina and Heidi
