Creepy Crawlies in Kindergarten!

This term, Kindy Blue and Kindy Gold have been investigating the world of creepy crawlies! Our learning journey has been full of wonder, hands-on fun, and lots of excitement.

We started by making pattern butterflies, carefully designing symmetrical wings. Then, using balloons and static electricity, we made them fly.

We explored bees and pollination, learning how bees help flowers grow. We made bee crowns to wear and enjoyed a special treat, Honey Joys!

To explore snails, we didn’t go looking in the garden, we baked bread scrolls shaped like snails and gobbled them up warm from the oven. One of our messiest and most loved activities was worm play! We squished and dug through mud to discover how worms help our soil.

In Talk for Writing, we also learnt the story 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar' and had fun creating our own versions, filled with new foods. The children were so proud of their imaginative stories.

It’s been a joyful term of learning, creating, and a little bit of crawling and squirming too!
