Wilkins

Dear Wilkins families and friends,

Thank you again for another wonderful week and last week of term!

On Tuesday we had some special visitors in the Wilkins and Langley yard. So we followed our chickens and ventured out into the big yard. As we followed them over, one chicken went in the coop and began to lay an egg! What a wonderful experience this was to see!

Harvey - "Chicken bok bok!"
Christian - "They eating grass, my chicken eat apple!"
Ronnie - "They chickens over there, two chickens!"
Ginger - "We got eggs but no chickens!"


Miss Jess then cracked the egg open so we were able to see what was inside.

This week we have spent a lot of time in the home corner baking some yummy treats. We have been creating our very own birthday cakes and have been singing happy birthday to all our peers. We also discussed what we like to do on our birthdays!

Following on from last week the Wilkins room have been interested in using scissors! We have been very busy using our fine motor skills at the cutting table! We have also tried using different shaped scissors!

On Tuesday next week we will be welcoming Miss Courtenay who will be joining the Wilkins class as the new co-educator to replace Mrs Nicole who is on Maternity Leave. Miss Courtenay visited us yesterday - we are looking forward to her joining us. Please say hello and introduce yourself when you see her. 

We hope you all have a safe and exciting long weekend and holidays!

Love Miss Jess, Miss Kim, Miss Ellen and Miss Renee.
