Mead

Another busy week in the Mead Room!

This week we have been making Gingerbread Men…. again!  However this time we made them with salt dough so no eating is advised!  We have been creating decorations for your Christmas tree and they will be ready to take home next week!  We were able to revisit our  Numeracy, Literacy and Science skills as we had to follow another recipe, with different ingredients and a different procedure to follow.

We said a fond farewell to Laoshi this week – Kath House is leaving us.  The children have thoroughly revelled in the interactive, spontaneous and fun Chinese lessons we have had with her.
Hannah – I like Chinese
Addison – I can count to 10
Abi – its easy
Seb – I like the number game (with fly swats!)
Lucy – I know it – the songs about the colours and the families

Happy Birthday to Spencer and Noah!

The Summer program begins next week, we have emailed a copy to you and there is one on the door to the Mead Room.  Looks like lots of summer fun and engagement with Miss White and Miss Melissa.

Time seems to be speeding up as the moments I spend as your child’s teacher draws to a close.  I am thrilled that they will have the opportunity to have a wonderful transition to Chapple Room, and for our Mead Room friends who are leaving for different schools – we will miss you, but hope to see you at the shops!!

Be safe, have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!
Melissa and Jain
