This week at playgroup we experienced our first bit of a rain that we have had in a long time ☔️ But, a little bit of rain doesn’t dull our spirits at Oratia Playgroup! In fact, I think it made our tamariki even more creative and innovative.
Indoors, the playdough became dirt, rocks and soil for our miniature dump trucks, loaders and diggers; the magnets became zoo enclosures and large towers and the pom poms became tea, coffee and muffins to be served to caregivers.
When tamariki were ready for some fresh air, under our large umbrella was transformed into an industrious cafe. And when the rain stopped, the yellow zoom slide used up any remaining energy!
A reminder to all of our regular whānau to join our private page for weekly updates and notices - ‘Oratia Playgroup Families’.
If you’re keen to come and check out Oratia Playgroup for the first time, please just pop along to one of our sessions on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. We’d love to see you!
