This week the Finches have been taking it easy.
They were interested in water color paint, pumpkins, safaris and building islands for the animals.
We also enjoyed ice skating and we are a lot more confident on the ice!

Penguins and Parrots were so excited to celebrate father's day! 😊 They spent a lovely afternoon, eating snack together and playing around the classroom.
This forest trip was very special, along with us came these little forest fairies ✨ . Children were searching for leaves and pinecones to dress them 🍁.
This week we also visited the supermarket! 🛒 We bought oranges to make our very own orange juice with the squeezer. It was so yummy! 🍊😋

Last week was lovely!
The Hawks spent most of the time preparing our gifts and activities for Father's Day coffee. In the beginning of the week they made constellations cards and reflectors. To have a bit of a break, they took a nice quick trip to the forest.
On Thursday morning, they prepared the yummy cookie dough to then bake on Friday morning for all the parents to enjoy nice warm cookies! Not only that, to celebrate Father's Day we also had a fun activity where fathers and children had to put together picture pieces that were spread around the classroom, it was a super fun afternoon 😊
