Thank you to all the parents that came out to the funarium and helped out! The children had a fantastic time running around with their friends. I could see that everyone was happy to be there and enjoyed trying out all the different activities. Take a look at our pictures to see how much fun we had!

Lets go hunting for insects!

Today we had a great day learning about different insects. The children were able to name off quite a few insects and how we have to be careful when we see them, such as no touching or stepping on them. They enjoyed walking around school with their clipboards researching which insects they could see. Today we saw lots of ants, big and small, along with flies, bumble bees and spiders. Everyone had a great time and hope they continue to look around their home for different insects as well. 
Take a look at some of our pictures from our mini beast adventure.

Duck Duck goose

This week we have been enjoying fun games during circle time. The children have come to learn which games they love and always get excited when they get to choose our circle time game. They have become so good at listening that each game a new person explains the directions on how to play. Here we are playing a game of duck, duck goose!






Let's explore sea creatures!

It has been a great week in Kindergarten learning all about the ocean and different sea creatures. The children enjoy talking about the different animals in the sea and how they move around. We explored how crabs move through the sand and can hide under different shells and dig holes through the sand. They explored how different sea creatures such as whales, dolphins, sharks and jellyfish can move throughout the water. Take a look at our pictures and see what fun the children had using water and sand trays to explore the ocean.

Let's go swimming

The children were so happy that it was swimming day today! Every week they look forward to this day and will talk about. saying "is it time to swim, can we go swimming now Mrs  Casey?"  I am proud to say they have become much more confident in the pool and love to join in games and play alongside their friends. Here are a couple of pictures to show how much fun they have in the splash pool.
