Chapple

Dear Chapple families

This week has been a short but a very eventful week!

We finished our salt dough poppy flowers to honour Anzac Day. These have been displayed at the front entrance of the ELC!

On Thursday, we performed and recreated our own performance of ‘The Three Billy Goats Gruff and Cinderella’ directed by Miss Kerry. This gave the children the opportunity to develop their social skills as the children collaborate with others and sparks creativity and imagination.

In performing Cinderella; Danica, Mikayla and Elyssa played the role of the 3 sisters, Oliwer was Prince Charming and Charlie from the Edgerley room was Cinderella. Tom D and Haris both played the role of a Billy Goat for ‘The Three Billy Goats Gruff’. This was also a great opportunity for the children to combine and build on relationships with children from another class.

Oliwer – I am Prince Charming

Danica – It’s my shoe

Mikayla – The shoe fits my foot

Dress up day on Friday was a big hit! It was great to see how many children got involved and participated in this event. Dressing up allows the children to explore different identities and can freely express themselves while role playing.

Have a lovely weekend!

Miss Elodie and Mrs Kaur
