Pp – Pride

Last week we had so much fun talking about all the different countries and cultures. We had a look at different flags an all their different colours. Our week was mostly discussion based as load shedding took place all week during school time. Every day we asked a few children for a name of a country… we got some very interesting country names, including Benoni a few times! 

 For Art, we made a class poster with all the Hoppers’  little hand prints and discussed that we are all the same even if we come from different cultures. Multi-Culturism means “ALL IN ONE!” We just love how our poster came out and will also be displayed at the Art Expo.

 We have also been working on our art pieces for art expo. We are so excited for this event to take place and show off all our work!

 Thank you to all our parents for making such beautiful hats for our Hat Parade on Friday. We had so much fun, and all our Hoppers were so excited to walk and show off their amazing hats.

Yoga Day was all about dinosaurs too! We marched and stomped, roared, rolled around in happy baby pose and calmed our breath like a baby Dinosaur.

Space

 We had a lot of fun with this theme and really tapped into our imagination chatting about space. The Hoppers learnt so much about Space. We did some fun activities like catching a star with tweezers hidden in a bucket of beads. This is such a wonderful fine motor activity. We also tried to copy and create our own planets with loose parts, this was great fun.
