Hub 10 & 11

Kia ora,

Over the past couple of weeks we have been watching and learning about tadpoles turn into frogs. This has lead to learning about other life cycles as well. A big thank you to Nicole (Layla's mother) for bringing the tadpoles in! Tomorrow (Wednesday) we are going to release them into the local Beckenham Ponds. We will walk down around 2pm and return before 3pm. Please ensure you child has their sunhat.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Charlotte and Amanda
