This week we had our final week of Families Connect. We are very pleased with the turn out and would like to thank each parent for their participation in the 8 week programme. We really hope you enjoyed it and have gained some strategies to use with your child.
We had lots of discussions each week and as parents ourselves, (Mrs Harper and Mrs Preston) we were able to contribute and relate very much the rewarding job of parenting. We learned lots from each other and we hope that you continue to play the games and use the strategies that we discussed.
Thank you for your support and commitment each week.
This term our 2 topics are based around the farm and in the garden. We have had lots of exciting things happening over the last few weeks.
We have watched our sunflowers grow taller and taller each day. 🌻🌻 Some of them are growing slower than others but we are having patience.
We have watched 10 caterpillars grow, make cocoons and we have been able to watch as 9 of them have turned into butterflies. We even managed to watch 2 butterflies emerge from their cocoons. It was amazing to watch this transformation! 🐛➡️🦋 We will release them from the net into the world very soon.
We also have 12 hen eggs sitting in an incubator and we are hoping in 3 weeks time we will have some baby chicks. 🤞🏻
We have had fantastic learning opportunities with all of the new life and we are very excited to watch our eggs very carefully over the next few weeks.
Enjoy looking at our photos and keep coming back to see if we have any new friends arrive. 🐥🐥
