Take Off!

-->
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Blast off! 
The day started with excitement. Building air planes, remote controlling Peter's helicopter and building kites in our small groups. 
The children enjoyed painting and assembling their kites. The whole afternoon was spent outside, the children and teachers running around the fields, flying the kites and air planes. What a blast!

The Fairy House

With a little bit of magic and a lot of gathered materials, we all went to the forest to build the Fairy house. The children loved having the freedom to choose where the rooms will be and what they will look like. They had a swing in the front garden, a bedroom were they all rested and a big room where they spent time together - reading books, telling stories about their day and playing. What a great time we had! 

The children wanted to share their stories with everyone, so they made a book entitled " A book about a fairy". On the cover it's a picture of themselves posing " the Fairy pose". The story tells everyone about their responsibilities when being a fairy and the pictures show their costumes and favourite colours. 

Serena said that, "anyone can be a fairy, just a big smile, colourful clothes and voila". Library Fairy, Cleaning Fairy, Laundry Fairy, Driving Fairy, Teacher Fairy, etc. Don't we all seem to play these roles at one point or another?
