Chapple

Dear Chapple families and friends,

Happy New Year!
We hope that you all had a fantastic break, it has been great sharing and discussing stories about different aspects of our holidays and all the amazing presents Santa left under the Christmas tree.

We started 2018 with a big splash, having Water Day on Monday and venturing up to the Rainbow playground on Tuesday and pumping plenty of water down the stream down to the sandpit to make mud cakes and pies.

We have been very busy manipulating thick strips of colourful paper to make links attempting to make one long enough so that it can reach around the whole classroom wall.

Mr Oopy!!!

The children’s excitement and joy says it all. What a grand entrance he made captivating the children’s attention from the get go, entertaining them with his witty humour. Popping bubbles of all sizes and watching the children’s expression of the extremely large bubbles created such a vibrant atmosphere.
We danced and sang with pom poms and even had Larissa from the Edgerley room singing on the microphone for us as we did the ‘Hokey Pokey’. We did the Limbo and challenged ourselves as the pole became lower and lower.

This was such a great experience and so much fun for the children as well as the teachers.

What a great way to enter our first week back at school!

We hope you have a lovely weekend.

Miss Elodie and Mrs Kaur
