We are enjoying visiting the Library every Tuesday. We have turns at getting a fiction or non-fiction books to read.

Kaiapoi is going to get a big, new library soon. When the building is finished we are going to visit it.

Mitchell and Madison were our gardeners for the Gardening Group today.

We practiced water safety at Swimming today. We had life-jackets on and we know that we have to float on our backs if we get tipped out of a boat or the water is too deep for us. Life-jackets keep us floating. We floated in the pool and we did starfish in the life-jackets. We felt safe. We know that we have to wear life-jackets if we go out in a boat, canoe or kayak.

Felix the frog said" I will be hungry on Monday. I hope someone brings me some flies, worms or spiders to eat".

On Friday we got a new member of Studio 2. Kayvarne showed us his frog "Felix" and we can have him in Studio 2. We had to get a home ready for him and think about some food for him to eat.
Kayvarne told us Felix came from Kaikoura. We had a discussion about frogs to find out what we know.
Frogs eat flies and spiders.
Frogs can jump.
Felix was a tadpole and then he turned into a frog.
Frogs grow from eggs.
Courtney and Nikita know how to catch flies.
At the weekend Mrs McKenzie came to check on Felix and feed him some spiders. He was hungry.
We love having Felix in our Studio.

We have new sand in the sandpit. It's great! There is heaps of sand and it is soft.
Rico said," Blake and Kayvarne joined in when I was in the sandpit. We made a sandcastle".
Jessie said,"Madison and Rebecca played with me".
Madison said," I made a big skyscraper"
Nikita said."I buried my feet in the sand".
Everyone wanted to be in the sandpit.
