Week 5

On Thursday we made marshmallow kebabs and then wrote about them on our whiteboards.

We watched the Senior children at Swimming Sports.  Remember to come and watch us next Tuesday for our Swimming Celebration.

Today we went out with the large balls and with a partner we practised bouncing and catching. We had lots of fun. 

Week 4

Last week, on Friday, we all dressed in Red for Heart Foundation Day! The school raised $396!!

We had a special swimming instructor on Tuesday!  Our swimming has improved so much!

We had fun with noodles this week, as we focused on letter "n" and enjoyed lots of new activities.  Next week we will focus on letter "m"!

Welcome back to Mrs Wilson.  It is lovely to see her and we are pleased she can move her arm a bit!
New Children: Welcome to Zeke who has started in Pikopiko this week!
On Thursday we  cooked and ate rice!

One of our chrysalis's hatched and we watched as its wings unfold. The caterpillar pumps the fluid out of its body and into the wings. After lunch we let it go!

Welcome to Pikopiko 2016

Hi and welcome back!  A special welcome to the new children who have started in Pikopiko this year!  We have had a busy 2 weeks settling in - but sadly without Mrs Wilson! Thanks to Miss Scoular for her fabulous work while Mrs Wilson has been away!

We have been enjoying the weather and loving swimming in the pool.

All of our monarch caterpillars have changed into chrysalises.  It will be so exciting to see a butterfly emerge... we can't wait!

End of year party and Merry Christmas!

We are very nearly at the end of the year now and today was our chance to have some fun and celebrate together with Kowhai. What an awesome afternoon we had!! We were fortunate to be gifted some money from Subway so we had the fantastic surprise of the Mr Whippy truck showing up at our school! Yum yum! We also had the very talented Magenta along to do some fabulous face painting for everyone - we had flowers, dolphins, rainbows, moustaches, frozen crowns and more! Everyone also had a chance to hop on their scooters and had a blast zooming around the school. 

Tomorrow is the very last morning of Pikopiko for 2015 so we'd like to take this chance to thank you all so much for being a wonderful supportive family community, and for being active readers and commenters on our blog. We've loved sharing our learning and it is so wonderful to get responses from home. We've all had an awesome year! We hope you all have a safe and happy holiday and a very merry Christmas. We're all excited for the Pikopiko and Kowhai adventures we'll have next year :) Happy holidays team!
