A wonderful end to a wonderful year in Middle Pre-Primary!

Welcome to the final Middle Pre-Primary blog this year!

For the past few weeks at school we have continued to learn about our IPC Unit, Sand and Water and we have been quite busy learning lots of new things! We learnt about why water is so important for our bodies and for the planet. We also learnt about the water cycle and why it rains! We looked at the different animals, which live in water and found out which animals are salt water animals and which are fresh water animals. We explored the different types of water around the world, learning about ponds, lakes, rivers and the oceans. We also made our own boat and we became sailors and pirates! For our Exit Point we had a wonderful sand and water fun day, where the children had pools, slides, bubbles and lots of water toys to play with! We played a fun ‘catch the water balloon’ game and we also had a very exciting boat race!

 

We had the opportunity to visit an art exhibition near the school and the children loved exploring the different displays and there was also a person dressed as a tree!  

We also had some lovely visits to the school library where the children could take the time to look at some books and to create stories that they could tell each other.

 

The children also really enjoyed Art Week, they had the opportunity to go to the different Pre-Primary classrooms and practice their art skills! In the Middle Pre-Primary classroom we learnt about Keith Haring and made some lovely art too!

We have continued to build upon our language, writing and math skills and the children should be very proud of how much effort they have put into practicing their skills!

We are sad to say goodbye to Owen, Wassim and Miss Esti. We will miss you all so much and we wish you all the best with your future adventures and experiences!

I hope that you all have the most wonderful summer vacation and I look forward to seeing you all in September.

Middle Pre-Primary, you should be so proud of yourselves! You have been a joy to teach and I wish you all the best in Upper Pre-Primary next year!
