Busy learners: school, cakes and caterpillars

Getting ready for school 

The boys and girls are so excited to try on their future school uniform. We had a fashion show. Don’t they look so grown up?

Visiting the school

Some of the children had the opportunity to walk around the school and find out where their classes are, where they would have lunch, go to the toilet and play in the gym hall.

Mark the janitor spoke to us about the gym hall and playground.

One of the primary boys showed us where the toilets were. He was very kind.

We set up a pretend school outside

 

We wrote letters from the alphabet.

We practiced writing and recognising numbers.

Some explored the days of the week.

There were lots of excited pupils in school.

Baking a “big cake”

 <This is our recipe


Licking the spoon was the best part.

All the children were amazed at how pretty their cakes looked when finished. At snack we all got to taste the yummy cakes.

Lots of problem solving and team work took place putting together the new emotion jigsaws.



Caterpillar update

The caterpillars are now tucked into their chrysalis and we are patiently waiting on them coming out. There have been lots of questions about what colour the butterflies might be? And how big they will grow?
