Hello Everyone
It’s the last week of term. Tomorrow is the last day of term. Preschool begins again on Wednesday 29th April 2009. There will be vacation care on specific days during the holidays so keep an eye on the big noticeboard near the gate for more details, or talk to Amba, Emma and Rowena in CASP.
Thank you to the parents who have offered to come and clean this week and also take things home to wash in the holidays. The cleaning jobs that have not been done this week will go onto our maintenance noticeboard next to the sink. If you come to a Maintenance Day at the end of the holidays please do some. Thanks!!
There will be a talk on baby animals by Bev Young, of Sydney Wildlife on Friday 1st May 2009 at 9.30 am. Last week the older children found a baby possum and called Sydney Wildlife who came to collect it and Bev offered to come and give a talk. This is free and all are welcome.
We have one book missing from the Australian Museum box that we borrowed. It is called “Eyes in the Dark” and it is about animlas’ eyes. If your child has taken it home please return it to preschool as it needs to be sent back to the Museum.
This week we have been talking about what children would like to learn about next term. We have a wide range of topics ranging from the alphabet, counting, bull fighting, fire fighting, how to pick up babies and marine biology!! Let us know if your child has any passions or burning questions!
Danni (Ellery in Fran and Jo’s class’ mum), brought in a dead flying fox to look at this week. It had got caught on the wires outside their house.
The CR course will be running for 4 weeks next term, starting on Saturday 9th May 2009. See Fran, Wendy or Chris if you are interested.
Thank you to the following people-
Janine, Charlie G.’s mum, for replacing the broken bag hooks.
Amba, Luca and Max, for the playdough rolling pin.
Christine, for the box of plants.
Hannah, Jacob, and family for taking the chickens for the holidays.
