Dear Mattingley friends and families,
The children have continued their interest in purple snow, which
are the flowers from the Jacaranda tree that fall to the ground, symbolising in
Australia that Christmas is coming. The children have been painting trees using
water colours and paint, and towards the end of the week the children have even
been playing with purple snow which they made using fake snow powder, water and
purple food colouring. We are beginning to create a Jacaranda tree in our class
using the pole and next week will add some purple flowers to it. Outside the
children have been making cement in the sand, playing What’s the time Mr Wolf
and having fun in the water on wet and wild day.
Have a great weekend
Miss Bowden, Miss Faye, Miss Tiarna and Mr Angus.
