Maple Room
January and February have been really busy months full of birthdays, big work and new friends. Our leaders in our room all had birthdays Miles, Lily and Norah turned 6. Sophie turned 4. We also welcome our new friend Mishika and Anika this month.
Our map cabinet work has been extremely popular as has our 100 board treasure hunt (on red paper with hearts). Children have been doing a lot of group work too. In the month of February our friends in the Maple room are learning about friendship, kind words, and love. We like to focus during this month on feelings and emotions as a whole. We are learning a few new songs to go with it 🙂 and I often hear my friends hum during the day. Our continent study focuses on Europe and our friends have been fascinated in particular by the boot shaped country Italy – we enjoyed making our own pizza!
Children have been going out whenever possible, so do send in their warm coats, hats, gloves etc. During the days that we are not able to go outdoors the children have been enjoying movement through freeze dance – we have some amazing dancers in our class.

Thank you to all who attended the importance of the Kindergarten year – it was a wonderful informative discussion.
In the month of March please join us on Saturday, the 7th of March 2015, between 2-4pm for our open house.
