Wainoni Building Co.
We have noticed that the Tamariki have a passion for building with Rakau, magnet blocks and the majority of Children love to build with timber and nails. One of the Tamariki asked if Stuart the Builder could come to Preschool to visit and help them build a house. One of our Kaiako rang Stuart the builder on the phone and passed it over to two of our most passionate builders. They asked Stuart to bring the work van complete with hammers, nails, saws, hats and goggles to Preschool. They finished off with ‘could you please bring a chocolate cake too, because that’s what builders eat’.
Stuart was able to visit with us the next day and the Tamariki helped him to build a new house using the hammer, nails, saws and of course one chocolate cake. When the house was complete the Tamariki happily took turns in painting the new addition. Wow! It looks amazing. The next morning work began on digging out our old bark and replacing it with new bark. This involved a digger and we were fortunate enough to have our photo taken whilst sitting in the drivers seat.
We look forward to continuing on our learning journey and the adventures ahead for the Preschool Room!
