Moral conscious theme: Being judgemental (Don’t judge a book by its cover).  

We explained to the Squad that everyone is different, you should never be mean or judge another person for how they look or why they do the things they do, always treat others with kindness.  

Writing and Phonics: This week the Squad did a worksheet on the “ub” and “ap” family, they had to match the correct words with the pictures followed by using their “cats” to write full sentences using these words.  

Mathematics: The Squad practiced counting in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s as well as counting backwards from 30. They thoroughly enjoyed the shopping experience where they bought items from their friends. They even used trolleys and had to out their “pin” in the card machine – hehe it was so cute!  

Creative Art: The Squad drew their own shops and added items to their shop to sell. They then made their own wallets and purses as well as their own fake money and coins that they used for their awesome shopping day experience – They then cut out items from magazines which they would like to buy and put them in their wallets and purses.  

FunFit Sports: Coach Trevor is currently assessing the Squad for their reports.  

Have a wonderful weekend!

Shops and Shopping

Our Shops and Shopping theme is always a hit! We taught the kids practical skills that blend learning with fun. We covered money basics (identifying coins, understanding “buying” and “change”), practiced social interactions (role-playing shopkeepers/customers), and linked maths to life (counting, sorting items). We encouraged creativity (designing their own “shop”), all while connecting school to the real world. The kiddies had an absolute blast choosing their items and filling their trolleys, it was too cute!

Cooking and Food

The Squad had a blast with the theme cooking and food! They learned about various cooking methods and the importance of proper food handling, especially for foods like pork and chicken, to avoid foodborne illnesses. They made their own pizzas, where they added their own tomato paste, ham, and cheese, and then took this delicious treat home to eat. Well done, Squad!
