We hope you enjoyed the beginning of our intergalactic adventure into space. You all showed compassionate and empathy when we had a visitor from outer space land in our playground and Ms B’s garden. You made her feel very welcome with your positive attitudes, your friendliness towards her and teaching her lots of new skills and games. Well done everyone! Next week, Beegu has invited everyone to experience what it is like to be an alien and attend school up in space!
The focus book for next week is: ‘Welcome to Alien School’. Please click the book below if you want to familarise yourself with the story to support your child’s learning – (please do not share with the children just yet as they will be receiving a special message to invite them to alien school).
