Hi Everyone!
What a lovely day we had on Friday, cooking, eating, playing together and especially washing up. It was a fantastic way of kicking off our new theme: “healthy bodies, healthy minds”. We have begun to talk about the healthy food pyramid and using it as a guideline for appropriate food to be putting in our bodies. We will be recording all the things that we eat and drink for the next week to see how much we eat of all the food groups. We will also begin to talk about other aspects of being healthy including safety, protective behaviours, self-concepts, relaxation, fitness, and relationship building.
Sport for the next two weeks will be rock climbing and ice-skating. We will split into two groups with Wendy’s class and do a week of each. We will be doing this at 11:00-1:30 and we will need drivers and helpers especially at rock climbing. These two sports can only be done if we have enough helpers so if you can help please let me know a.s.a.p. so I can confirm the bookings. There is also a permission form put out by Climb Fit that all children participating need to have filled out so please sign the form and give it back to me before next Monday.
Tomorrow, our class is going up to Lane Cove Plaza to participate in the Children’s Voices for Reconciliation, We will be singing a song with Wendy’s class. Afterwards the children from Alexandria Park School will be coming to Currambena and having lunch.
Lastly (but not least) welcome to Michael and Chelsea who have both become classroom assistants for this term in our class. Both Michael and Chelsea are ex-Currambena students and I am very excited at having them both be a part of the class for the term. Michael will be in the class on Monday mornings, and Chelsea will be here on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. Hooray, lucky us!
That’s all for this week I think! Have a great week!
