Dear Cooper families and
friends,
The holidays have begun
and each day we have had an exciting experience for the children. On Monday we designed and painted the
children’s faces into jungle animals. After pretending to be animals inside we
took the children into the outside area to run in the bushes before finishing
with animal stories and games on our new Samsung tablets. Tuesday saw the children visit
the hair dressers shop located in both the town square and Cooper Room, where a
variety of coloured sprays, hair chalks and bands were supplied for the
children to have new outrageous hair styles! Wednesday was dedicated to
gardening and the children planted herbs, flowers and vegetables. Thank you to
all the parents who provided gardening equipment and seeds for the children, we
will all be nurturing them so they grow.

The movie was very
successful on Thursday, and the children enjoyed fresh fruit and popcorn as
they watched the Jungle Book. We voted on who was our favourite character in
the movie and there was no suprise - Baloo was the firm favourite: who
doesn't love a big blue bear? To end the week the children took part in
the colour run. On your marks, get set..... so many beautiful colours
running across the school oval. It was the Cooper children in blue, green, red
and yellow showing how fast they can run. They ran in team colours and as a
finale, all the children ran a 'rainbow' race. Each child was presented with a
medal for great participation, lovely listening and top effort for joining in
with smile!
