It was another great week here at OOSH. Our theme for the week was the season of Spring. We created butterflies, flowers, bees, ladybugs and plants. Chloe H, Asha S and Madi M found lots of gum nuts on the ground and had the idea to turn them into a wind chime. Just a reminder, the weather is beginning to warm up and from term 4 all children will need to wear their hats when playing outside.

Hi everyone, to help promote a healthy lifestyle here at Hamilton South OOSH we have a new afternoon tea menu beginning in term 4. I've attached a copy of the menu for you to look through. As always, we will still continue to provide alternatives for those children who have special dietary requirements. We plan to change the menu each term and would appreciate your feedback or suggestions in planning our future menus.

We made jelly fish, fish using the iron-on beads and coloured some wonderful pictures. We also created our very own under water scene. Our theme for week 9 is all about the season of Spring.
