Hello Edgerley Families and Friends.
The children and staff alike have had a fun-filled time as we have
wrapped up our final week of the holiday program for 2017. We have enjoyed
engaging in activities such as moulding reindeer with chocolate scented playdough,
building rivers and dams at the Rainbow Playground, participating in Christmas
Kareoke, and challenging ourselves with different cup-stacking challenges.
It was great to see a large portion of the children express a
particularly keen interest in the fake snow that we created on Tuesday morning.
This activity was supposed to take place during our Tuesday morning session,
but the sustained interest and appreciation demonstrated by the children caused
the activity to continue throughout the entire week! Here are a few samples of
the children engaging with this activity…
This is like the North Pole – Oliver
Dig, dig, dig at the snow – Samuel
The person is getting buried by the snow… It looks like a big,
bubbly washing machine – Karl
Look at my big pile of snow – Aaron
Push the digger, just like the real snow – Yash
The penguins and the birds are playing in the snow – Ed
It feels fluffy, like a fox – Sebastian A
The car has big wheels so it can drive in the snow – Stirling

We would like to take the opportunity to thank all of our
children, friends, and families for an incredible 2017. It has been an absolute
pleasure working with all of you, and we would like to wish you all a joyful
Christmas and a safe and prosperous new year. We look forward to seeing you
when the early learning centre re-opens on the week of Monday the 8th of
January 2018.
Much love,
Mr Richards and Miss Gray
