24.01.2022 Making slime!!! The children looked for letters in the instructions and counted and mixed until they ended up with their own little pouch of slime to take home. The Kindergarten children also wrote the capital and lower case letter that their name starts with and used the slime creation to trace out the letters that their name starts with. What clever children we have here!... Kindergarten would like to say a very big thank you to the beautiful family who donated all these wonderful supplies to our class! It has been so much fun! Does anyone else have slime recipes that we could try?

24.01.2022 We celebrated National Agriculture Day recently and we discussed how farmers grow their crops. To bring new life to our veggie beds we pulled out the old corn plants, gave the soil a digging over and pulled a few small weeds. We then prepared small planting holes and transferred our new seedlings. Our future crop includes lettuce, capsicum and parsley seedlings as well a small kaffir lime tree. What do you have growing at home? We would love for you to share pictures of your gardens at home.

22.01.2022 Teachers help students find important things theyve lost everyday. Sometimes its a paper, backpack or jacket... other times its courage, confidence or a smile. Today was a beautiful reminder of how much of a connection our educators have with the families. We have amazing educators at our service and with great pride and pleasure we share these heart warming photos of Miss Kym receiving a very special gift from a truely wonderful family who have thanked her for her caring nature, support and love that she provides everyday.

20.01.2022 Happy Educators Day!!! A big shout out too all our beautiful talented wonderful staff! Thank you for all that you do! And a big happy educators day to all our fellow educators around the world!

20.01.2022 As the children in kindergarten become more confident in their drawing and writing skills, they want to create more and more. Every day we are blessed with a special mail, pictures or portraits from the children and this was the inspiration for our new kindergarten teacher display. We have replaced our photos in the entry to our kindergarten room with portraits created by the children as a way of showcasing their talent and enthusiasm for learning. "I dont say everything but I paint everything" - Pablo Picasso

19.01.2022 Bear Feels Sick by Karma Wilson This is a story about a bear who feels sick as the season changes. and try to help by offering him a comfortable bed, cool washer for his forehead and making herbal tea. Bear started to feel better but then his friends start to sniffle and sneeze. Bear knows what to do and takes great care of them all. Kindergarten One steeped their own herbal tea to re-energise themselves just like bear in the story. They picked fresh mint, cut oranges and discussed the aroma of The chamomile, honey and vanilla tea. The conversation was wonderful as they shared tea and their thoughts on their important things in their world.

17.01.2022 Who can save Captain America and Iron Man?? Kindergarten One have been extending on their S.T.E.M knowledge recently and for this exercise they have focused on the extension of learning about the use of questions to find answers. As Kindergarten came together for their morning meeting, the children noticed a small table in the middle of the mat area. There was something hidden on the table underneath a sheet and the children quickly spotted a piece of paper folded under the ...table. "Its a message!" Miss Kym opened the message and showed the children. Do you see anything on here that you can read? "That looks like Captain America writing." "It says Captain America!" "It says Iron Man too!" "And there is a question mark." Miss Kym read the rest of the words.... Dear Kindergarten 1, I have captured Captain America and Iron Man in ice mountain. Can you help set them free? If not, they will be stuck there forever. Mhaha hahaha hahaha From Ultron

16.01.2022 We have been exploring force and motion all week in kindergarten. Today the kindergarten children were experimenting with movement by air. They tested their theories about what the air/wind can move and worked out reasons why some things fly in the wind but others dont. As the experiment progressed, the children become storytellers and draw their understanding of learning on the teaching easel. The feather is light so it flies in the wind. The rock dropped down. It was too heavy for the wind to lift it.

Swooped was born from a story which Citadel wrote when her daughter Amber was a toddler.

Sometimes theyd go to the park sometimes to the shops or sometimes just for a walk around the neighbourhood. A sweet tale of a granddad and granddaughter. We will have a centre copy at our reception for display only. If anyone is interested in purchasing a book you can either see Miss Amber in Toddler Two or on the following sites. Amazon prime IngramSpark Book Depository or via Facebook - Citadel Amies #LocalsSupportingLocals
