Our day out started with a fun trip on the bus to the Outpost in Burra.  We split into two groups so that we could visit all the animals.  We saw the goats, emus (Kylie and Jason) and the wallabies.  The bairns were keen to feed the animals and the emus were especially hungry.  Then it was time for George and Hetty the pigs to have their snack.  The bairns commented on their big teeth.  We also saw the colourful birds in the aviary and the rabbits, tortoises.  Unfortunately, the chinchilla was hiding.  We had a quick snack and then headed back on the bus to the Meal beach.

When we arrived at the Meal beach, it was pretty windy.  Some of the bairns braved the elements and went for a paddle in the sea.  There was also lots of digging, filling and pouring of sand.  The high sand dunes were also great for sliding.

We took the bus to the Fraser Park in Scalloway and stopped for lunch.  After a quick refuel there was a little time to play on the park equipment.  The bairns explored the different activities on offer, making good use of their gross motor skills.

Our end of term party was a lot of fun.  We started with games in the quiet room, including Pass the Hedgehog, Duck Duck Goose and Musical Bumps.  Then there was a special visitor who brought his ice cream truck.  This was inspired by the bairns’ imaginative play throughout the year “Who wants ice cream, ice cream?”  After ordering their ice cream, one bairn commented “This is so awesome” and another said “best day ever”!

To end the term, the bairns asked for a water fight.  The bairns voted for a film and we watched that while enjoying snack.

 

Happy holidays!
