ELC news
Book Week is always a wonderful week at the ELC. We enjoyed 2 fabulous costume parades with children and teachers inspired by their favourite books. For the Lobsters Parade, the teachers were crayons from ‘The Day the Crayons Quit’ and on Wednesday they dressed as all the parts of the ‘Very Hungry Caterpillar’ story. We even had a special Hungry Caterpillar inspired Fruit Shop with 1 apple, 2 pears, 3 plums, 4 strawberries, 5 oranges (and everything that the Hungry Caterpillar ate on Saturday) as the teachers acted out the story for the children.
We wish all our dads, granddads and father figures a very happy weekend and we hope that you are able to join in with some of our Father’s Day celebrations.
