Mead

Dear Mead Room Families and Friends,

We started off the week venturing up to the Rainbow playground with our Mattingley friends, we had a wonderful time and on the way back to the ELC - we explored the boarding house vegetable garden! We picked some lemon grass, handfuls of bright red cherry tomatoes and found 2 giant green zucchinis!

Teddy: I went down the fireman pole, really fast!
Iverson: I played hide and seek with Teddy
Zara: The tomato was yummy!!
Zahli: I liked helping to pick the zucchini
Poppy: I like tomatoes!

As the week went on, the mornings were getting hotter and hotter- so we spent our time outside running through the sprinkler, splashing in puddles and keeping cool!

Zara: I liked splashing in the water! Muddy puddles!
Cody: I liked running through the sprinkler

We created a dinosaur nature table using clay, sticks we collected from the yard, spiky pods, wooden rounds and of course, dinosaurs! We enjoyed getting our hands messy, squishing and squelching the clay, moulding all sorts of different creations!

Next week we will spend full days visiting the Chapple Room, please drop off as per normal and from 9am the Mead children will spend their day in Chapple with Miss Elodie and Miss Beth.

We hope you enjoy your weekend!


Miss Boler and Miss Beth
