Wilkins

Dear Wilkins families and friends,

We trust you all had a lovely Easter break! The Wilkins teachers have thoroughly enjoyed hearing about what the children got up to and how many Easter eggs were consumed! During the break Miss Nicole had baby sitting duties of our class tadpoles. She was lucky enough to wake one morning and find a fully developed baby spotted frog. Through watching and investigating the life cycle of frogs, the children have been further developing their understanding of living things and have been introduced to a wide range of new vocabulary.

Over the weeks leading up to the end of term we are going to be exploring farm animals and reptiles. There has been a lot of interest around this area, and many of our children like visiting our chickens on a regular basis. If any one has any baby chickens at home or a pet or equipment associated to farm animals or reptiles that they would like to bring in to show the class, we would be very appreciative. We are expecting another addition to our class very soon which we have raised money for and kindly received donation! Our very own lizard! We are very excited.

We hope you all have lovely weekends,


Miss Jess, Miss Nicole, Miss Georgia, Miss Ellen and Miss Kim
