Welcome to our Chickens

March saw us introduce Lucky and Nugget to their new home. The chickens are Brown Shavers. They live out the back at kindergarten and have a coup called the Bayview Hilton Chicken Coup. They eat special chicken food and love our scraps. We are getting an egg a day. We will be cooking with these lovely free range eggs. These chooks were rescued from a Battery Hen house. They are so happy to be with us. We would like to thank Sophie and her family for lending them to us.

The Pumpkin Competition

The Pumpkin Competition

The competition was held between Bayview Primary School and Our Kindergarten. The seeds were planted same day. After returning from the summer break we discovered the competition was all on. Mr Pearces' pumpkin had grown really big and ours was so much smaller. As time went on it became clear that school won the competition. Can you guess the weight of the School's pumpkin? It weighed in at 35 kilos. Congratulations Mr Perace. We will do this again next growing season.

Red and Black Day

Friday 4th March we held a Red and Black Day for The Canterbury Earthquake Appeal. We raised $77.00. Thank you to everyone making this a special day.

Bayview Trikathon 9th March 2011

New Sand for our Sandpit.

March 11th: Today we got a truckload of lovely new sand to top up our sandpit. It was all hands on deck to shift the sand into the sandpit. Fran (Blake's mummy) brought her shovel. Jacob's daddy and baby brother helped. Joelene, our other Blake's mummy helped too. ALl the children helped with buckets, spades, rakes, and wheelbarrows. Many hands make light work. Thank you so much everyone for all your help.We love you all. :)

The Fire Truck Visit

The Fire Truck Visit

1st March 2011
The Fire Fighters from Albany Fire Station came and visited us today. They talked to us about keeping safe when a fire happens. We have to talk to our parents about a safe place to meet, if a fire happens at home. We learnt to stay out and keep out. Noah got to dress up as a Fire Fighter and we all got a turn at squirting the water in the hose. Thank you for visiting us.
