Dear Parents,
The Angwin
children have had a really busy week this week. On Monday we were lucky enough
to visit the Adelaide Zoo. The children had a great time observing different
birds and animals.
Walter: The Emu
is a big bird.
Ashton: The Emu
has 2 toes.
Oscar : He yawned
(Tasmanian Devil) he's tired.
Jed: Look Freddy,
Kookaburras!
Alice : The
Koala's looking at everyone!
Lochlann: It's
spiky and wet (echidna). He could spike someone.
During the visit,
the children were intrigued by the maps and kept checking to see where we were
going and what animals we would see next.
Chloe: Where's
the T-rex?
Lochlann: It's on
the map!
Walter: Don't
worry Sophie, I know exactly where we are (pointing to the map).
Back in the
Angwin classroom we have set up a space for the children to create their own
zoos and paint their own maps.
Some of the
children have also helped create a map of where we can find the rainbow
lorikeets as we walk up to the Preparatory school. We have been asking staff in
the centre if they know where the rainbow lorikeets live at PAC. We have
discovered that some people have never even seen any here. We hope that
our map will help them discover where they can spot a rainbow lorikeet at PAC.
The map is on display in our classroom so please have a look and you
can find out where the lorikeets are at our school.
Have a lovely
weekend,
Pip and Cass
