Angwin

Dear Angwin families and friends,

We have had a great week this week. Thanks to everyone for bringing in something for show and tell that started with the letter 'P'. During our cooking this week we decided to stick with the 'P' theme and made pineapple pizza! 

Our space corner has new things constantly being added to it. On Tuesday we asked the children what they thought was missing. They came up with a list of ideas including a rocket, space helmets and space gloves. All of these items can now be found in our space corner thanks to the creativity and the teamwork the students have put in into making or collecting them.  

A few children were also interested in finding out 'How do you make space food?'. On Thursday, we searched the internet and were lucky enough to find a video showing us how food is prepared for eating in space. Since then a couple of students have suggested we make our own space food to include in our space corner.

It's been wonderful watching the children's creativity blossom this week as they have been making things or role playing in our space corner. It's also been fantastic listening to them share their knowledge about space with others or inquiring about something they are interested in.

Have a lovely weekend,


Cass and Coral
