Spooky Goings On

We had lots of fun at a Halloween party for the ‘Jazz It Up’ fundraising event. We started the day getting our outfits ready, painting our faces and body parts with blood and guts!

We began with six lovely children and ended up with a fearsome cat, a scary clown, a bloody school girl, a spider boy, a spider girl and a wolf!

The children decorated Tracie up as a moody pumpkin and made her go and sit in the pumpkin patch for a photo!

We had fun joining in with spooky games, dance competitions, find the spider, balloon popping and enjoyed eating fingers in rolls with sticky blood!

We enjoyed ourselves so much we decided to have another spooky day. We made pumpkin prints, played spooky snap and had afternoon tea, with wiggly worms, creepy eyeballs, long fingers, pumpkin soup, and spider cakes. Yuck!

Moving On Up!

This September we had a lovely tea party to wish our two Schoolies Martha and Lily good luck with starting big school! We looked back at the last four years, how much they have grown and all the activities, fun and laughter we have shared along the way!

We are all looking forward to updates and visits from you both.

Homemade Potted Herb Fence

The children loved helping Tracie make this herb fence. First we used the electric screwdriver to put screws in place to hold the pots to our fence. They have moulded holes on the back to make them easy to attach (from IKEA).

We then went over to the cold frame to pick the herbs we wanted to display. We chose Curry Plant, Rosemary, Lavender, Coriander, Chives and Mint. The whole fence was so pretty and fragrant the children spent the day going over and smelling them. We even had a bee visit us.
