Bam Bam the lamb
Our current programme planning at BestStart Heuheu St Kindy is centred around Papatūānuku and the living world around us. Our local environment here in Taupō is so very important to us and so we are supporting the children to learn about how to respect the place where we belong, and the living things within our place. We had two amazing days where our local whanau brought animals in for our tamariki to care for and learn more about. We had one day where Bam Bam the lamb stayed at Kindy all day and the children had the pleasure of feeding him his bottle and ensuring that he had a comfortable and quiet place to sleep when he was tired. Another one of our whanau brought their two chickens in to visit the tamariki and this was a great experience for the children as, again they had the opportunity to feed the chickens lettuce and learn about how to take care of them while being respectful and gentle. What an amazing learning experience for our tamariki on this beautiful spring day.
