Dear Parents and Friends,
In all our preparations for
the Nativity next Thursday we have shared many versions of the true story of
Christmas. The children have done so well with our practices in the town square
and to learn the songs in readiness for the big day. We are all very excited to
be wearing our pjs up on the big stage!
We had a priceless moment or
two in the Mead Room this week in our home corner showing us how much our
children do know about the Nativity story….
Angus – Jada’s got a baby in her
tummy!
Jada
– Look! (laughs)
Angus – Hide the hair. We don’t
want them to know there’s a baby in there. (Angus does Jada’s top button up to
hide the dolls hair)
Jada – Put the manger in there so
the baby can go in there.
Jacob
– I’ll get
it. (While getting the manger Angus and Jacob get the Nativity books as well)
Angus - We’re going to read the
books to the baby.
Jada – The baby’s coming out!
Quick get the blanket ready.
Angus – Ok I’ll get it ready….
(Jacob watches on as Jada and
Angus fumble a little getting the doll out from under her top)
Jada - Tuck his bottom in (Angus
is trying to wrap the baby in the blanket)
Angus – There, he’s all in.
Jacob – Angus you read the small
ones and I’ll read the big ones.
(Angus opens a small book and
begins to ‘read’)
Angus – Ok. Once upon a time,
there was a Mary, who wanted to find some treasure, but she had a baby….
We are looking forward to
sharing our special performance with you all on Thursday 11am Anzac Hall!
Warmest Wishes,
