This was a jam packed and exciting week. 

This week we learnt all about families. We discussed our Families and who lives with us and who is in our family. We spoke about the importance of families and that we get different families, some families are big, and some are small but either way we love them all. We asked the Hoppers the names of their family members some knew them all and others not so sure. Please remind the Hoppers of all their families names.   

Over the next few weeks we will be working on our integrated theme art piece, this week our Hoppers painted a triangle with bubble wrap for our shape of the week and coloured in little pictures of their family members. We are so excited to save this 3-week masterpiece for our art show. For cooking this week, we learnt the skill of whisking and stirring. The Hoppers learnt how to whisk eggs. This is a great activity for their basic maths skills by counting eggs and to build language skills. It is also good to build their fine motor muscles. 

At FunFit sports we practised a full run through of our Sports Day which will be taking place this Saturday 9th of March. We hope to see you there. 

Concert practice is also well on the way, for our music lessons each week we will be learning and practicing concert songs. So much excitement! 

It has been a wonderful week. 

Our theme next week is: My House

Wild Animals and Birds of Prey

This has been a delightful week learning all about wild animals and birds of prey. The Hoppers really enjoyed this theme so much. Wild Animals are such fascinating creatures that live in their natural habitats, such as forests deserts, and oceans. We spoke about the big five and all the other animals we can find in the parks. We discussed where they live and what they eat. We also asked the Hoppers which is their favourite animal. We got lots of different answers. The lion was on the top of the list; well, I guess after all he is the king of the jungle.
