Happy Birthday to Jordan M and Zac M

We had a wonderful Mother’s Day celebration this morning. Thank you to all those mothers, grandmothers, aunties and special friends who were able to join us for breakfast and spend some time in our ELC classrooms. We wish all the mums in our community a very happy day on Sunday.

Our Wednesday fruit shop is always a wonderful learning opportunity. As well as celebrating our ‘Mystery Fruit’ each week, we learn about how things grow, colours, shapes, tastes and textures. We practice counting and we work out what weighs more, or how many syllables are in the name of each fruit.  Earlier this week, some of the children were talking about seeing mushrooms growing in the wild, so we took the opportunity to look at lots of different types of mushrooms and to talk about only eating safe mushrooms that we get from the shop and to never eat any that we find growing.
