Langley Room




A big warm welcome to Term 2 and to our new friend, Oscar von Roon, who started in the Langley room this week. Our unit of inquiry for this term is Paddock to Plate. We have started our investigations with eagerness as we share our knowledge and understanding about farming and produce and how it reaches our plates. Our discussions have begun at meal times, identifying and examining individual ingredients in our meals and talking about where they have come from. We have discovered that we already know so much about this area of investigation!


I can see carrots. Carrots come from the tree – Jack
Where do you think peas and beans come from? – Miss Nicole
From our trees, from the garden – Harry JH
Peas, peas from outside – Bernie
Water comes from the garden – Knox
Water comes from the fridge – Nathan
Where do chickens come from? – Miss Kerry
From outside – Clementine
In the supermarket – Loukas
Where does corn come from? – Miss Kerry
I grow in my garden – Oscar

We have also spent the week excitedly preparing for our Princesses Tea Party next Thursday 9th May. If you have not already RSVP’d to Mrs Dry could you please do so as soon as possible – we hope to see all the Mums there!

Best wishes,

Jess, Kerry, Nicole and Emily
