Goodness. The holidays really flew this time and we are now into the second week of a fairly short term. The children seem very happy to be back and have been busy revisiting areas that are special to them such as the repaired swings. The family area has been really well used with the bits of fabric and different scarves making dressing up fun and a little challenging as they wrap themselves up in a variety of ways. At present we are all involved in making a kindergarten book around the focus of "We are all alike. We are all different'. The children have been drawing self portraits, pictures of them and their families, and will then move on to their friends, and where they live, - their houses, farms, pets etc.
The teachers have been busy providing feedback to the MOE ECE taskforce document as well as indulging in a little professional development.
Sadly at the end of the week we will say goodbye to the student teacher we have had here for her seven week practicum. It has been great to be able to support her in this her last student experience before she graduates and enters the world of teaching.
Kia kaha - Be strong.
