Community kindy update

THE children of Palmwoods Community Kindergarten and Pre school have spent March learning about the lifestyle of caterpillars and frogs.

Tadpoles have steadily been growing legs, much to the children’s interest and amazement, in an aquarium on the nature table. The grounds have been thoroughly searched for these creatures and evidence of their existence; many leaves with holes in them have been collected. The ever popular story: The Very Hungry Caterpillar has initiated many educational conversations about frogs, tadpoles, caterpillars and butterflies.

The children have cooked gingerbread men accompanied by soup and stories of escaping gingerbread characters. They kept their eyes closely glued to the biscuit tray making sure their creations didn’t escape. Fathers night was organised this month and Dads, Grandfathers, Uncles and mothers who can’t spend regular time at the centre came to share a special night with their child.

At the end of March parents & children brought plates of party food and shared an Easter party, celebrating their first term together and the Easter holidays.
