Dear
Angwin families and friends,
The
last week of the holidays has brought us the rain and chilly weather. That
didn’t mean the fun stops for our Angwin friends though. We celebrated Edie’s
birthday with cupcakes this week and we can’t believe that from here on,
everyone will start turning 5! Oh how time has flown! We continued on some
projects in the classroom. Our autumn tree is coming along and we have been
talking about what we like to do in this autumn weather.
Staying
in my pyjamas and covering my head with a warm blanket, Felix
said.
Taking
my shoes off and putting my gumboots on, Roy added.
I
like to watch the rain, Ryan said.
Jumping
in muddy puddles, Lachlan shared.
Our
interest and explorations on birds led us to have a try at making bird cakes to
provide birds some yummy food in this cold weather. We are hoping our recipe
worked so we can hang our bird cakes on trees all over the college. What very
caring children we have got!
We also managed to work on our garden beds and
transfer some of our growing beans. We hope to have a bountiful harvest in
winter and when spring comes. Our last Monarch butterfly turned out to be a
female and wished her good luck at being safe and laying eggs as we set her
free.
Despite
the raincoat and gumboots kind of weather, the children enjoyed building,
creating, singing and working with their peers. They loved sharing about their
time spent at home and holiday places which gives them the opportunity to
enhance their developing social and communication skills. We are looking
forward to welcoming the new term and having Mrs Cooper back. We can’t wait to
hear how she has spent her break with her family.
Don’t
forget to donate nappies too. :)
Cheers
Mrs
Rocca and Ms Jen
