Summer Slam 2018 Week 2 - July 26

Day 4 began with a cookery project. We made the children’s all-time favourite - jelly and left it to set in the refrigerator. Strawberry jelly with ice creme is on the menu for dessert tomorrow.

 

For our art time, we explored an interesting African art project for children. It is called African Akuaba doll Scratch art. The project is done in three phases. 
Phase 1- children coloured the sheet of paper in many colours.
Phase 2- they then spread a layer of black paint on the coloured sheet and left it to dry.
Phase 3-  they used a toothpick to draw the face of the doll.

 We did another interesting structure modelling craft project in the afternoon. Children were shown an easy method to make 'paper pyramids'.  It was nice to see the older children helping their younger friends with the craft. They have also managed to paint their project and have left it to dry.

We came up with a fun game called the straw maze. All we needed was a paper case, straws, double sided tape and a bead to form the game. Children stuck the pieces of straw at different angles on the paper case. All one has to do is to tilt the box to get the bead from the starting point to the finish. For snack time we had crackers and cheese see the picture to see our version!

Dancercise to 'She drives me crazy' (FYC) with Uncle Suhairi was a perfect warm-up for the Rugby.  Now do take the title as gender-unspecific!

Rugby match between Team Reyansh & Team Kaira. A cup of freshly squeezed orange juice was the perfect drink after a thrilling match.

We are all excited about the trip to the beach. Please have your child dress in comfortable clothes and sandals. Please remember to send along a hat and apply sunscreen and an insect repellant on your child. We will be back in school in time for lunch and dismissals for our half day session children.
