What a busy week

What a wonderful week we are having in Kakano.  The teachers are
so proud of how well the children have settled into school life.  All
children are arriving at school remembering to do their morning jobs
and are happy to say “Goodbye” to Mum and Dad.


Morning Jobs:
Please remember parents it is important for the children to carry
their own school bags, mark their roll and put their Bookbag
in the right box on their own.  It is great to see our tamariki
becoming more independent each day.  


Brain Breaks:
Each morning at around 10 am we have a “Brain Break” to recharge
our batteries.  During this time the children are able to select one
piece of fruit from their lunch box to eat.  Please make sure your
child has fruit in their lunchbox that they can eat for their
“Brain Break”.  The children also have the option of drinking chilled
milk provided by the school.


Reading Logs:
Thank you to all those who have returned their reading logs. 
These all need to be back tomorrow. The Reading Log Draw
will be happening this Friday at assembly.  It would be great to
have all children from Kakano return their logs.


Kakano kids hard at work:
Lots of children have been creating with the Lego.  We have had
boat builders, rocket engineers as well as architects hard at work
this week.


The Mo-Blo is always fun to play with.  We have been using our
measuring skills to see who can build the longest Mo-Blo vehicle.


The “Family Room” is a great spot to hang out and use your
imagination. We have been talking, negotiating and working together
to create our own imagined worlds.  We have even been using the
vacuum cleaner to keep our space clean and tidy.


We love to read!  It is great to relax and read on our own or read
with a buddy, where we can talk about the awesome things we see
in a book.



We are so lucky to have an amazing outdoor area we can play in! 
The sandpit is a great place to play, dig and create with our friends. 
The water has been lots of fun to play in on these hot days, we love
to pour and mix the different colours and experiment with objects
that float and sink.
