Hello Room Three

April 30th, 2012

Dear Room Three,

I hope you are all doing well. It is Autumn here now and all the leaves are starting to change colours, it is very beautiful. It reminds me a lot of home around Halloween time.  My parents came to visit and we had a really great time traveling around. I missed them so much after they left. 

Our Kindy had a renovation, we now have beautiful washrooms. We are going to be learning all about under the sea. The children are really interested in things they have found at the beach such as star fish and shells. We were talking about things that live in the sea and will be making some sea animals out of recycled materials this week.  It is interesting to learn about  sea animals they have in Australia. They  have some of the most beautiful fish at the Great Barrier Reef.

 I miss you and hope you are all doing well. Mrs. Dutton showed me some pictures of the classroom and I could see some of things you are doing. It all looks fantastic. I hope you enjoyed the pictures I sent of the Kindy. We will send you more I promise. Please write me or post notes on the blog. 

I wanted to share some photographs from my trip with my parents. Enjoy!

Love, 

Ms. Leventhal 

 Giraffes at the Sydney Zoo.

This is a model of a little Penguin which we saw on Philip Island. You are not allowed to take pictures of them as the flash hurts their eyes. We saw all the little penguins come to shore at sunset and go to their homes. They were so cute. There were hundreds of them.

 We went strawberry picking, I found these tiny ones. they were delicious.

 This is my stuffed toy he is a wombat. Each teacher who came to Australia got one, we are suppost to take him traveling with us and get photos of him. This is my wombat crossing the road in the Flinders Ranges.
