Fingers crossed for some sunshine 🌞 see you all tomorrow.

Baking a 'Black Bean Chocolate Cake' for curriculum catering this week. A first for me and remembering it is more about the process than the product - we followed a recipe, we measured, we poured, we smelt, we mixed, we 'licked' the scraper (a must when baking in my opinion) and we practiced patience.....
We then got to taste our creation. 10 out of 10 Pita exclaimed!
Very tasty if I do say so myself 😊

Thursday the 9th of May we headed up the hill for Amy's last trip. We welcomed Dakota, Franco, and Kora for their first trip. Thank you to Kiki, Asta, and Kingston for your support today. With Amy leading the way we walked on the painted lines of the soccor field, we explored, we investigated, we balanced, we swung, we hung, we ran, we ate, and we rolled our way back down the hill to kindergarten again.
We are so lucky to have this area right next door to explore fortnightly.

Good afternoon, Forest tomorrow- fingers cross the weather clears up for the forest team.

Amy, Ezekiel, John, Maddison, Pita, Florence, Jivonte, Dakota Abel and Franco.

Please dress well and bring morning tea.

See you all tomorrow!

Happy Easter from us to you.
Fun at kindergarten today as we went on an Easter Hunt...
We have had fun this short week getting ready for Easter.

We had a lovely morning at the Forest. We had running races, we climbed trees, we admired the views, we looked at the clouds, we did roly-polys and enjoyed each other's company. Thanks to our helpers; Ciara's Mum, Maddison's Mum and her Nana.

Hot cross bun orders are here and ready to pick up 🙂

Yoga in the forest.. what a fabulous time we had this morning. Thank you Ciara for showing us how to enjoy yoga outside! Also a big thank you to our parent help, Asta and Imogen 🙂

We hope you have a happy weekend.

On Fridays we bake 🙂 This morning the tamariki chopped, mixed and measured to create delicious chocolate chip biscuits that we shared at morning tea 🍪🍪

Many thanks to Claire, Asta and as usual Diana for supporting the forest trip today! You all played an important part in our morning.
I think we will always remember the trip, for the balloons that got away. We all hope they landed in some nice persons garden somewhere. Amy thinks they are now in Auckland - just maybe. It's great to wonder. Ka pai team!
