Each Dress Down Day a class will have the opportunity to hold an activity for the whole school to enjoy. This may be a fundraising initiative for a project in their class or simply a time to share or celebrate something special.
This month the kindergarteners are having a bake sale as part of their emergent curriculum topic “School is Cool: Building a community in our classroom and at Provo Primary”. The class has been working together to improve the outside house area (they have named it ‘The village’). They have decided that they need more outdoor materials for this play space. They made a shopping list and presented it to Ms Alison and Miss Sian. It includes cups, plates, pots, food, a tea party set with a teapot, a table for the kitchen and shovel and buckets to make sand castles.
They have planned the bake sale to raise money for these extra toys that they believe are important for the village play area. I am sure donations of these toy items will also be gratefully received. The Year 1 class has also joined in with the bake sale as they share the play areas with the Kindergarten class.
So when you come to pick up your child today, come ready for your senses to be enchanted by the wonderful array of baked goodies to tempt you and know that as you enjoy these, the Kindergarteners and Year 1s will be most thankful for your support.
