Mattingley

Dear Mattingley families and friends,

The children have had a fun week of activities and creative play with their friends. This week, the children have been building with the large lego and wooden blocks, dressing up in animal costumes, mixing colours with paint, creating collages, climbing on the outdoor equipment and finding treasure in the sandpit.

On Monday, the children had fun mixing two colours and seeing what those two colours created when they were mixed together. They mixed red and yellow together to create orange and blue and yellow to create green.

I think it’s going to make orange - Didier
It’s orange - Angus
It’s changing - Riani

The children have really enjoyed dressing up in the animal costumes and wearing masks pretending to be animals using their imagination and creativity through role play.

The children have also had fun searching for treasure in the sandpit as they worked together as a team to look for the treasure by digging holes in the sand.

Come, look! We found some treasure - Nathan
Treasure, treasure - Patrick
We found treasure underneath the sand - Didier
Found treasure here - Lachlan
Over here Lachlan - Kaeshav

It has been so nice to watch the children smile and interact with each other sharing their interests.

We hope you have a great weekend.

Liana and Kimberley
