From Egg to Butterfly.

We had the swan plant but no caterpillars so we put the plant outside in the vegetable garden for the night. Next morning we were very excited to find that six white eggs had been laid on the leaves. From these eggs hatched 4 tiny caterpillars and we are enjoying watching them get fatter every day as they chomp through the leaves. Next week we will photograph the cocoons and then finally the butterfly!

Junior Athletics

The Junior School will be having their Junior Athletics Day on Monday March 23rd at 11am. All children in the Junior School will be involved. The events include sprints, relays, hurdles, vortex throw, sack race and egg and spoon race. All welcome.

Welcome back to Room 2 for 2015

This is an exciting term. We have a trip planned to the Wetlands at Hannah's Bay. We will let our frog that we have watched grow from a tadpole go back to his natural habitat. We will also be looking at the community garden, the wild life and we will make a leaf boat guaranteed to float! Parent help is most welcome.
