24.01.2022 Last week at Pre Kindy the children explored the lifecycle of a butterfly. They looked for and identified insects in the tuff tray, listened to and contributed to the story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, participated in story recall, then acted out the story. The children also observed a poster, learnt a new song about it and participated in a variety of art and craft experiences about the butterfly lifecycle.
