Hawaiian Styles...

It's Hula Time! On Friday the 25th of June we had a Hawaiian Disco/BBQ at kindergarten. Families and children had a great night, it was a chance to dress up, mix and mingle and have some fun. Our commmittee did a great job on the BBQ, we all enjoyed yummy burgers and sausages. Check out the video above!

Hi again, we enjoyed making a range of fire-engines creations with use of worksheets, collage and even face-painting to extend our learning about the New Zealand Fire Service. Here are a few snapshots :)

Fire Engines

Hi everyone. Kia Ora. Konnichiwa. Namaste. Ni Hao. Talofa Lava. Bonjour. Ciao. We welcome the beautiful sunshine today where we were able to continue enjoying our Active movement experiences promoting our co-ordination, balance, fine and large muscle skills, communication, turn-taking and confidence. Yippee our new bikes have arrived and we are enthusiastically enjoying these in our kindergarten environment. On Monday we also went on an excursion to the Central Fire station. Thanks to Joel and Ayden and their family for fulfilling this wonderful learning opportunity. We really enjoyed our bus trip there and learning about some of the busy things that happen in the Fire Service. We look forward to learning more about the emergency services, our community, the diverse cultures in our kindergarten community. We would love for you to share a little about yourself and/family pertaining to jobs, cultures, foods and celebrations to name a few. Here are some photos for you to enjoy... :)

Friday 4th June

Well the first week of winter is officially here but thankfully the weather has been on our side, and the sun has graced us with it's presence daily. There has been loads happening here at kindergarten from moving and a grooving to "Hi 5" on the mat area, exploring on our new bike in the outdoors, construction kit exploration, painting and helping out with the building of the new fence. On Friday we were lucky enough to have 'KatAnnaFiddle' visit, they performed for the children and told us loads of exciting stories, what a great way to end the week. Check out this weeks video for the highlights! It sounds like there is snow on the way so wrap up and keep warm out there :).
