<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Kia Ora whaanau!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Term 3 has begun and we are working towards a 'Gold - Paa-Harakeke' Healthy Heart Award! This involves working with the children and encouraging healthy choices and foods. </span><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The children have been busy making lots of different healthy lunchbox foods, and this week have made Fruit Kebabs, Popcorn and Pinwheel Wraps. They have really enjoyed both making and eating these foods!! Let us know if you have any ideas or recipes for healthy and easy lunchbox snacks, we always value family contribution.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">We have been sewing new beanbags this week with the children and are really looking forward to playing with them. Beanbags are a great way of encouraging physical movement and promote both spatial and body awareness. Most of all they are FUN!!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">The new garden is beautiful and the children have enjoyed getting in and getting their hands dirty. Lots of seeds and seedlings have been planted and we are exploring different things you can plant in - check out the table next to the computer - we have seeds planted in different containers! The garden will promote lots of thinking about sustainability, recycling and reusing everyday things from around the Kindergarten. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">With the London Olympics coming up we are getting out and doing lots of physical activity outside and are planning an 'Olypmics Day' - watch this space!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Enjoy checking out the photos from this term so far!</span><br />

<br />
We also travelled the solar system on our flying saucers.<br />
<br />
Off to Pluto we flew. It took us a real long time to get there because we know that Pluto is the furthest planet away from the Sun.<br />
<br />
Then off we flew to Jupiter where we explored the hot planet and all the volcanoes.<br />
<br />
WWWWW next it was to Jupiter’s neighbor Saturn.<br />
<br />
What great fun we had but we started to miss our Mum’s and Dad’s so home to Earth we flew.<br />

<br />
<br />
A wee few snippets of projects our amazing tamariki have undertaken over the last few weeks<br />
<br />
The children designed and created ‘Sarah the scarecrow’ out of recycled <br />
<br />
<br />
materials.<br />

We hope she will scare away the cheeky seagulls so they won’t eat our bean tee pee<br />

Look at the watering can the children designed, created<br />
<br />
using amazing co-operative discussions, problem solving and<br />
<br />
use of technology.<br />
<br />
Now we can water the beans. <br />

</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We set the truck up outside and the children as a group took control of the equipment that was needed on the truck to fight all the fires.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ladders, hoses, fire fighter helmets and coats were added to the growing pile.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Problem: How to fit everything into the truck as well as all the fire fighter (as there was many). </span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Jordan had an idea, “Lets get a trailer”</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A climbing box was added to the back of the truck.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hemi added a steering wheel for driving which sparked Finn to add two rocks in front of the wheel for “The brakes”</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Tyla added a small box behind these for the seats.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Make it.</span> </div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Then more boxes arrived and as we had planned from the day before discussions the children set to work on the rescue helicopter.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">And WOW what great team work as the children discussed and negotiated how they would. Jordan who had been one of the leading ideas persons the day before when they had discussed making a helicopter ran off and had a look at the posters that we displayed on the walls.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He told us the colours we would need and how there needed to be propellers on the top and a tail at the end.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Over the remainder of the day the children engaged in large group dramatic role plays using the box and the fire engine.</span> </div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They did revisit a number of times over the next day but once the initial making had been completed the interest was not the same.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Learning occurring.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The children had the opportunity to build on the plans they had discussed and use visual prompts such as the posters to help to extend their thinking on how they would achieve their plans.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 1. Take off the damaged panels, front and back of the boat. Claw of the hammer under the wood and carefully pull up.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 2. Place the new panels on the frame. Oops! They don’t quite fit. Now for the exciting part. Andrew gets out the power tools and safety ear muffs. (They were a great hit) Now Andrew sands and cuts the panels. We all had to stand back a bit to keep ourselves safe. WOW it was noisy.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Steps 3. Drilling and screwing in the nails and screws. Everyone got a turn to do this. Lots of turning, screwing and hammering and everyone got a turn with the ear muffs.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The children watched very carefully as Andrew repaired our boat. The carpentary table was moved over to where we were working and lots of hammering and trying out the things Andrew showed the children.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thank you for coming to Kindy Andrew the children really enjoyed watching and working with you and being involved in purposeful tool work.</span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Our carpentry table has been very popular since and we had to add ear muffs and safety glasses to our tool list when we purchased new equipment.</span></div><br />

Joan showed us her uniform, her coat with her badge, rubber gloves to protect her hands, her face mask, and her safety glasses. She read us a story about clean teeth and showed us how to brush our teeth, how much toothpaste to use and how to move our tooth brushes to keep our teeth clean. Joan also told us that Mums and Dads should help brush our teeth until we are about 9 years old. That's so the toothbrush reaches all the corners of our mouth. Joan brought along "Tigger" who opened his mouth wide to show us all his lovely clean teeth. Joan got out her special little mirror that she uses to look in all the children who visit her teeth. Then we all got a turn to look at Tigger’s teeth with the little mirror.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

We all sat down on the mat and listened to him talk about fire safety. Ant talked to us about where he goes to work and what he does there, including eating and sleeping. But, all the gets interrupted if the fire alarm goes off! Ant also showed us some matches and a lighter and asked what we should do if these things are found. The children decided it was a good idea to give these things to an adult! Ka pai! We also talked about what we should do in case of a fire at our house. If the fire alarm goes off, we yell “FIRE!” and then we GET OUT AND STAY OUT! (and wait by the letterbox). Next, the fireman’s uniform. Of course it wouldn’t be as much fun unless one of our teachers dressed up. The children talked me through what I needed to put on to keep me safe from fighting a fire, my boots, pants, jacket, gloves, and hat. The children also got to take turns going out to the firetruck and learning about all the different parts, and even got to sit inside!! After all the wonderful learning, the children finally got a turn spraying the water from the fire hose! They got to feel how heavy it was and turn the nozzle to make the different pressures of water change. What an awesome learning experience to see what one of our community members does! </span><br />

This term Julie, Sapph, and Amy are going to try their best to blog and allow family and friends to keep up with the children's learning!<br /><br />We have had an exciting start to the term already. This term has sparked an interest in the community and the jobs and hobbies of people in the area. We have had visits from Ant (Hannah and Josie's dad) and his firetruck to learn about fire safety, Joan the dental therapist, and Captain Cornflakes from the local kid's radio station. Trips to the local garage and supermarket, a visit from a hairdresser, and lots more are planned!<br /><br />Our biggest news is that we are getting a brand new Kindergarten soon!! This is currently in the pre-planning stages with the Dunedin Kindergarten Association, but our present building will be getting bulldozed and a brand new one will take it's place. We'll need everyone's help in fundraising this year and we will keep everyone updated as we find out more information!<br /><br />Keep watching this page for updates in the children's learning journeys!!Julie, Sapph, Rachel and Vickihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08694039111635324025noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478379321961837440.post-62028420588558351482008-06-13T16:29:00.005+12:002010-07-23T14:45:31.266+12:00Fortune Theatre<p></p><p>We had a amazing day exploring the in's and out of the Fortune Theatre. What excitement there was on the way to the Theatre, it was great having the opportunity to act on stage, under lights and real live audience. This was a first time experience for some of our new children and they are looking forward to going on another trip in the future. We learnt lots about stage sets, props and how they are made, it was fantastic that we got to try on many different hats. there was a lot of tired children on the way home!</p><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dxPbOEwc_SslD4e7z21BSa0daUevLJhQUXanNOFSMdDVkENsogEbnk_FWVFozLlspnOmkCEpDVfgYxFmJjaBw' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>Julie, Sapph, Rachel and Vickihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08694039111635324025noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478379321961837440.post-82465578904002457122008-06-06T13:31:00.006+12:002008-06-16T13:29:10.452+12:00Breakfast at Kindergarten<p><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dwWDay5aF5MQH97as_SjMqdcTuoOiXhNQAXSAvTM1xE4RacIahHey5U_vytuGggCyodDL8Yy3RKvr0h-ZtMJg' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></p><p>To celebrate the change in seasons from Summer to Autumn our children ddecided that we could have breakfast at Kindy. Some of our older children who had breakfast here before, really wanted Carmen to make her special waffles. Along with the usual breakfast items like toast, and cereals we enjoyed a hot Milo and waffles. It really was a family affair with the baby brothers coming along in their PJs too. Lots of fun was had working alongside each other in our PJs, playing in the dough, building in the sand and even have a story read to us before bed time that night. </p>Julie, Sapph, Rachel and Vickihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08694039111635324025noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478379321961837440.post-16029574272121073712008-05-28T13:51:00.002+12:002008-05-28T14:11:49.671+12:00Billy Goats Gruff<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzfos1IwTN8CXoCn-jjRJ5wqcBnObsoAFhd37jpWI7TY91aKhNayzbjaimeaWWjXoIKkKwGG9lP0FyV29hubA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>Julie, Sapph, Rachel and Vickihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08694039111635324025noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478379321961837440.post-5645922670424696282008-05-28T13:04:00.004+12:002008-05-28T13:44:01.811+12:00Princess Song<p><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzPjlm5lw3rMk9TaTl1-38owO_2xHA7yE3CY8EY1Tfv6OMpT74yDDEHmNoPtZvuwnOfvFBFq4nORUrBCgWnrA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></p><p>Here at Kindergarten we have been exploring the art of acting. This is one of our favourite songs to <span style="color:#000000;">act out in a group with our friends. We are starting to make different props to go with our plays, because we have learnt that they can tell the story too! It is great to lots of supporting, turn taking and communicating with each other, while we perform. All the children want to have ago at once, but it is always important to have the back ground singers. Next week we get to take our play to a real theatre and act it out on stage. Watch this space!!! </span></p>Julie, Sapph, Rachel and Vickihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08694039111635324025noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478379321961837440.post-83395689641153174752008-05-19T14:58:00.007+12:002008-05-30T09:44:55.497+12:00Wombat Stew<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dyq53JNptDanxOMrVpxbmKV_3KzABG34ZXSZCfxoRTKAyi8TiqSTCm5JQ4X1FzU_ltFmXuG52ubKYAnyw9WVA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>What a great story teller you are Max and Felix. It is really great to see you both sharing the story together. I was talking with Mum Felix and she said that you sing this song all the time at home.

We have been working in small groups to act out many different stories, like the Three Billy Goats Gruff. The children have also found that props can help tell and story too. Here we are using head bands with ears to help decide who is the big Billy Goat, The Middle and the smallest Billy Goat. Can you tell?</div>Julie, Sapph, Rachel and Vickihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08694039111635324025noreply@blogger.com1
