Dear Parents, 

First and foremost, I want to congratulate each and every one for an amazing Market Day! We raised R5 632 WOW!!! This is amazing!  We are going to have a blast at our outing in celebration of this successful market day. 

As we approach the holidays it was very interesting to hear where all the Crew would like to go. There was Scotland, Cape Town, the Bird and Monkey Park, Durban, Kenya, South America, the Kruger, and a few kids want to go to Sun City. I think the Crew are more than ready for their December holidays. 

This week The Crew renewed their passports. Each one got a special passport and the opportunity to stamp them with all sorts of different pictures. They came out so cute! We even decided as a class to use our passports for our outing on Friday. 

Learning the alphabet is still one of our top priorities. This week we practiced writing our letters and we are continuing to sing our Jolly Phonics whenever we get the chance. The Crew really shine when doing these activities.  

We have been working on our Christmas art this week and The Crew are beyond excited to share these special pieces with their parents. I love hearing the stories that come up during these activities of the different traditions each family has over Christmas time. It seems that Elf on the Shelf is the most awaited visitor! 

Teacher Lexi made some banana and apple planes with The Crew this week for cooking. They practiced peeling their banana and spreading the jam with their own knife. I was very pleased to see how far their skills have progressed throughout the year. 

Next week’s theme is Christmas, and I am just as excited as The Crew to get into Christmas spirit! Let’s make these last few days extra special and extra magical! 

Next week’s theme: Christmas 

Our Crew!
