Dear Mead Room families and friends,
What a week!
On Monday we welcomed our new Mead Room
friend, Zara. We welcome her, and her
family, to the ELC. Thankyou to all our
Mead Room friends who were so kind and inclusive of Zara straight away!
Our chicks, or pullets, are
transitioning to their new home outside…….. we are not quite ready to see them
leave the nest yet! They have had a few short runs outside in their chicken
run, which they are thoroughly enjoying.
The children have been creative in the
atelier with observational paintings of spring blossom. We had noticed the
‘clues of spring’ on our walks to PE and Library and asked one of our amazing
gardeners if we could ‘borrow’ some twigs.
The children have taken notice of the differences in blossom colour and
requested many different hues of pink!
We are still utilising the magnetic
letters to represent our names. Many
children return to this experience and are delighted and proud each time they
place the letters of their name on the board.
Book Week has been such a whirlwind of
experiences. We had an amazing Book Tent City set up
in the Town Square where we read to ourselves and to others. It was a beautiful setting to snuggle up with
a book and some friends.
Mr. Andary visited the Mead Room to share
a rollicking yarn of a bear and a flea, and on Thursday we paraded our costumes
and revelled in all things literary.
Take care of each other,
Melissa and Georgia
