Duffy Books- Brodie Kane

On Friday Room 1 received their first Duffy books for the year.  We had a lovely assembly with our visitor Brodie Kane.   The children really enjoyed her personality and learning about her and her achievements in life.  It was a great time and we love our new books.  I hope you enjoyed reading them with your children.

Below is the link to the Duffy Kids song we sing at these assemblies.

Brodie even posted about our assembly on TWITTER.


The coolest experience ever. Presenting to Manurewa Central School, such wonderful children!

CATERPILLARS

Today Room 1 made Grape Caterpillars.
We have been learning about the life cycle of a Butterfly.

We know the butterfly lays the EGG on a leaf and out pops a CATERPILLAR.
The Caterpillar eats lots of leaves then it gets fat.  It attaches itself to a branch and turns into a CHRYSALIS.  Inside the chrysalis the caterpillar is changing and turning into a BUTTERFLY.



Below is the link to a short clip that helped us understand how the life cycle of the butterfly goes.
