Angwin

Dear Families and friends,

The Angwin children have really enjoyed being back this term. We have noticed that some of us are taller, some have even lost a tooth and we have had lots of fun sharing what has been happening in our lives over the holidays. Our new friends have fitted in beautifully and it has been heart-warming to see the way our old Angwin friends have welcomed them immediately into their play.

During our show and tell, we enjoyed hearing about everyone’s holiday experiences. We heard about Teddy’s overseas adventure, holding a real eagle! Oliver had an adventure at the beach collecting real lava rock from an extinct volcano….
This led us to start thinking about volcanoes and how they have been made and what happens when they erupt… We did a fun experiment with our own sand volcano…

Wolf: It came out… the lava!
Liam: The volcano exploded!
Rosie: All the bubbles popped and they exploded lots and lots!
Antonio: All the lava came out and I think it was water!
Denver: It looked pink to me!
William: It looked like our volcano was real bubbles were popping out!
Regan: It was erupting.. We used a bottle instead of rock!
Harry H: The volcano was having lava coming out like a real one!

Welcome back everyone! We are looking forward to many adventures and fun this term!

Kind Regards,

Pip Cooper and Wenting Hao
