Mead


 
Dear Mead Families
 
Throughout the term the Mead children have loved playing in the big muddy puddles in the outdoor area. To celebrate International Mud Day on Monday the 29th of June the Mead Room were asked to bring along their rain jackets and gumboots. The children were itching to get their gumboots dirty and were yelling and shouting as we made our own squelchy mud puddles.

Once the mud pile was ready the children raced in the jump and play in the puddles. Some of the children picked the mud up with their hands and squeezed it through their fingers.

We spoke about how we felt when we jumped in the squelchy, gooey muddy puddles. These were some of our responses:

Abi – I was happy

Lachlan – Very, very excited

Charlie L – Holding it was yucky

Eloise – I stood in the mud. I felt great!

Wilbur – We were stepping in the muddy puddle with all of the friends

Ned – We had rain jackets so we don’t get mud on us

Seb –I liked the puddles, jumping in the puddles

Maxime –Jump in the muddy puddles

Benji –Jumped in with my gumboots

The children thoroughly enjoy playing in the muddy puddles for the rest of the day. Some were unsure about the mud to begin with, but once they started playing in the mud it was hard to stop!

Please remember:
