Ducklings
Last week, we had 5 eggs arrive. We kept them nice and warm in their incubator. The children were very curious about what was going to hatch out of the eggs. Would it be a dinosaur? Was it an elephant? Even a unicorn? Two days later, 2 eggs started to hatch and we were so excited to see two little ducklings. Once they started to hatch the others soon followed and we noticed that we had 4 yellow ducklings. We were very excited to get to hold the little ducklings but we had to be very careful. We only stroked them with one finger. It was a great day when the ducklings learnt how to swim. They kept diving under the water and splashing us. After 10 days, the ducklings went back to the farm and we were sad to see them go. Thank you to the Belmont PTA for funding such an amazing experience.
Hive Holi Event
On Friday 16th May, The Hive held their annual Holi dance workshop and colour paint throw. Children enjoyed learning a new dance routine and ending the afternoon performing the dance to parents before getting covered in colourful powder paint. Children, staff and parents left the Hive in a vibrant colourful state. A fun time was had by everyone.
