Wheels day at BestStart Lemon Street
As a part of our school holiday programme, BestStart Lemon Street had a wheels day. What a fun filled day we had as we explored moving confidentially and challenging ourselves physically on scooters and bikes.
The tamariki were so enthusiastic about participating and some amazing sharing occurred as children shared their bikes and scooters with each other. This gave tamariki opportunities to persist with difficulty and face new challenges as they figured out each piece of equipment.
It was great to see knowledge being shared among the tamariki and them helping one another to figure out the pedal bike or the more challenging scooters.
Through the Te Whāriki strand of exploration tamariki were gaining confidence in and control of their own bodies as they moved the equipment they were using. They were also challenging themselves physically during this play on wheels day.
