Dear Cooper Families
and Friends,
Welcome to the beginning of a new year and I take this opportunity to wish
everyone a safe, happy and healthy 2017.
I look forward to seeing the children’s development through their own
personal learning journey. It’s so nice
to see the children back at our ELC and being involved in activities and
enjoying themselves.
This week we explored many different
indoor and outdoor activities. We enjoyed finger painting, face painting
and the children used playdough to make cup cake and birthday cake. The
children were totally interested in playing in our camp were heard chatting and
making lots of giggles. The Cooper children were able to enjoy the beautiful
weather by participating in outdoor activities such as playing in the
sandpit and slide, building blocks and
climbing frames.
We have also been
building our fairy garden which we made with fences and by creatively using
natural materials for our project. The
children have been very good to patiently take turns to do the plantings. Some of the things they did, in their own
words:
·
I put some water into the plants and
plants need soils - Sterling
·
The fairy garden needs a door for house
and I put the stuffs in - Lotti
·
We need soils, plants, rock - Isaac B
·
Water for plants and planting seeds - Brian
And before I signoff this
week’s update, I also like to welcome our fantastic new
educator Mr Christopher Richards to our Cooper room team. Feel free to say “Hi” to Christopher when you
see him.
Miss Melissa and Mr
Richards
