Dear
Chapple and Edgerley families and friends,
Week
2 has been loaded with fun and discoveries as we engaged in lots of indoor
outdoor activities.
Our
paper cubby house has been an ideal place for quiet reading, listening,
singing and even playing with musical instruments. Great for hide and seek too!
Ms
Veltmeyer has been sharing with us cool and fun activities from her
recent PD called "Music Starts in Early Years" at Kodaly Music
Institute of Australia.
These
activities helped us with smooth transitions and just having fun with music and
rhythm. She has more in store for us in the weeks to come. Thanks Ms
V!
We
also put a lot of effort into weaving around a bicycle wheel helping us with our
fine motor, hand eye coordination and concentration. It's looking pretty
colourful now hanging on one of our beams. This can be a great settling
activity for your child in the morning, one that you can participate in too
yourself. Please don't hesitate to join in !
Our
campus tour is still a big hit as we get to explore all of PAC's wonders. We
just make sure we don't wake the dragon sleeping in the dungeon!
Sandpit
play was a great venue for relationship building and social skills, especially
when you are making 'quick drying cement' where everyone gets a role to play.
"I'll
make sure it's the right mix!" Sebastian V initiated.
"I'll
get the water you need", Abhinav kindly offered.
"Just
don't put too much water otherwise
we will have to do it over and over again", William W explained.
"It's
nice when it's a bit goeey!" Advaith added.
"Can
I join?" Liam asked.
"Okay,
here's the shovel for you", Seb Mc. offered.
All
in all, if you need building and construction tradies, you sure know who to ask
for help!
We
also made our own bubble solution and just loved blowing them away and of
course POP them!
Next Week's activities! Please Save the Dates!
Wednesday: Pyjama Party. Please
send your child in their favourite pyjamas and uggboots/slippers. We would like you to
pack their sneakers or shoes for outdoor play more suited for running and
climbing outside.
Thursday: Fire Engine Visit :
Please drop your children off before 10 am if possible.
Friday: Centre Dress Up Day!
Children and Teachers get to dress up with their favourite costumes. Please NO
superhero costumes if possible. Thank you.
We
are looking forward to the last leg of the school holidays with your children.
Coney,
Pamela and Cristina
