Dear Parents,
It has been a lovely week in the Cooper Room settling into
our new routines and meeting new families and friends. As a new group we have
been learning how to be more independent unpacking our own bags, putting away
drink bottles and looking after their belongings. The children have loved
exploring the room and discovering new play spaces such as our “Noisy Table.”
“That a big loud noise!” said Archie hitting the pans
with his wooden stick
“Hey you can shake these. Shakey, shakey!” said Tommie
“Too loud!” said Harry putting his hands over his ears at a
nearby table.
“Dese click, look click, click, click,” said Knox tapping
the castinets.
During story time the children have loved sharing stories
about counting. A favourite has been “Five in the bed!’ We have even been able
to roll play the story on the couch with the Cooper Room bears. This will be an
activity we will continue to explore next week and during our Chinese session
on Thursday.
It has been a wonderful week getting to know all the
children and we look forward to sharing the next 12 months with them.
Kind regards
Susan and Coral
