Wow! What an amazing week we have had in Kangaroo Class. It was delightful to start the week with home visits. Thank you so much for welcoming us into your homes - It was great to meet you all.

This week, the children have settled really well and are beginning to get into the swing of the routines at school. The children have loved exploring their classroom and playing in different areas. We have observed new friendships forging and we will continue to support the children to get to know one another.

We have enjoyed a singalong every day and the children have practiced a range of songs. Their particular favourite was five cheeky monkeys swinging in a tree. You can sing along at home by following the link:

Next week the children are in full time and we can't wait to begin our learning journey with them. We will be starting the baseline assessment and if you would like to know more about this you can follow the link below:
