A busy week 7!

What an active and fun-filled week we had last week. It was the first week of our swimming programme and we would like to thank all the parents who gave up their time to walk to the pool and back with us, help the children get changed and to those who were brave enough to get in the water to assist with group lessons. We feel so appreciative of your support. Below are some photos of the children enjoying their lessons.

On Thursday we had an afternoon of hand-printing led by Simon, our Enviroschools Co-ordinator. The children each made a hand-print in their tribe colour onto some wooden boards. These will make up part of the archway for the entrance to the Playscapes area. It is great that your children will leave their permanent mark on this feature and we hope to see lots of you joining us at the official opening of the Playscapes area on Thursday 15th December (see the school newsletter for more details). Click on the "Create" page to see some photos.

We have also welcomed 5 tadpoles into our Pod! The children are enjoying making careful observations and we have made predictions as to how they may change in the coming weeks. Have a look at the "Explore" page to see photos.

Here are some photos from swimming. We are looking forward to another successful week of the programme.

Busy gardeners in Pod 1

Our Little Garden plants have been growing steadily so this week we transplanted them into bigger pots.
