To teach the children about Heritage Day this week we learnt all about cultures. How lucky we are to live in a country where everyone embraces all our diverse cultures and beautiful country! It was very informative to know all about: 

 Our national bird: The Blue Crane 

Our national animal: The Springbok 

Our national tree: The Yellowwood Tree 

Our national flower:  The Protea 

Our national fish: The Galjoen 

The Hoppers enjoyed painting our flag with their fingers. This was a good activity to improve their fine motor skills, hand eye coordination, colour recognition. We are so busy preparing for the art show coming up. The Hoppers are creating the most beautiful pieces to show off on the night! 

For yoga the Hop0pers learn all about teamwork. The group flower pose is only possible if everyone can balance, create a circle by holding hands and keep their core strength tight whilst lifting their leg up. The hoppers had so much fun and was able to hold this pose for 15 second. Well done Hoppers. 

We would like to wish all our September Hoppers a very Happy Birthday! Bohlale, Iyana, Zayden and Ella, we are so proud of the wonderful kids you have become. Thank you to all the parents for the delicious ice-cream and making the day so special for them. 

Wishing everyone a lovely long weekend, enjoy the time with your little ones. Stay warm 

See you on Wednesday! 

Our Hoppers!
