Chickens!!

 
This week's big news is that we have nine chicks! Three of the chicks have already been to school and have been much admired by all! All nine will move permanently to school next Tuesday.
 
This week we made:
 
Soup of the Imagination
Beef Ravioli with Tomato Sauce
Thai Carrot Salad
Herb and Grain Mustard Rolls
Stir-fried Vegetables in Oyster Sauce
 
 
Frank completed a matching exercise where he had to find various plant labels in the new garden.

Here Rochelle is completing a plant identification activity

The new garden is going well!

We decided it was time to finish the mosaic table  - grouting was great fun, but very messy!

Julie and Aaron decided to have a dance while they were gardening!
