Vv – Vegetables

This week we learnt about fruits and vegetables on the farm. What a great theme in encouraging our little ones to eat healthy, especially with winter around the corner. We started this week with a theme discussion about fruits and vegetables; we spoke about our favourite fruits and vegetables and the difference between them.

This week our kiddies made a progressive art piece of a delicious pot of soup. The hoppers worked on their cutting skills, cutting out pictures of different vegetables in magazines. We then coloured in a pot and then they stuck on their vegetable pictures.

On Friday the children put their cooking skills to the test when they helped Chef Thembi in the kitchen to make yummy seven-veggie sauce for lunch.

It has been a very busy week with assessments, building puzzles and counting as well as concert practice and sports days practice!

Remember to dose up your little ones with extra vitamins, it is getting a lot colder.

Our theme next week is: The Farm: Animals

Have a safe and lovely weekend!

See you at Sports Day tomorrow!

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.
