A Day at Kowhai Corner Pre School

 


Mrs Light is at Kowhai Corner Pre School with Adam. She is going leave Adam at the Pre School for the day so she can do some business in town and do some shopping. They are welcomed by Mrs Breeze who has started the Pre School. Connie, her assistant will arrive soon to help.


The children play on and with the toys provided. Mrs Breeze and Connie are discussing the routine for the children for today.


Connie reads the children a story after they have morning tea.




It is toilet time for the children before they have their lunch.


The children sit around the table or are put into highchairs to have their lunch. The mothers of the children bring lunch and bottles for their child to have. This has worked out well because different children cannot have certain foods.


After lunch all children have a rest.  Hopefully they will all go to sleep.


When the rest time is over the children go outside to play. Some children are playing in the sandpit on the right.


It is winter and today is an overcast day so there is no water play. Parents or caregivers must collect their children between 2.30pm and 2.45pm.


Mrs Light had a good day in town and did what she needed to do. She picked up Adam from the pre school on time. It is now 6.30pm and Adam is in bed at home asleep.

The Breeze Family Buy a House

 

The Breeze family have been looking at houses to buy. Today they are taking the children to look at a house that they looked through yesterday and both parents like it.


On looking through the house again the Breeze family have decided to buy it. The house is minus the stairs and a door, plus they don’t like the back wallpaper. These things can be fixed. It is the location at Kowhai Corner that they like.


The Breeze family were successful in buying the house and today they have moved in. The children have no problem climbing the blue ladder to get to the second floor.


The family’s first meal in the house is the evening meal of corn on the cob with bread and a drink of milk.


The family still have to buy some necessary items for their house but they are so pleased to have their own home and will enjoy buying the necessary items in time to live comfortably.    Mr and Mrs Breeze spend the first evening watching television while the children are upstairs in their bedroom playing.

The Queen Celebrates her Platinum Jubilee

 The family are staying in London. They have come to watch the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

They are watching the soldiers match past when grandfather calls out to Thomas, “Grandmother is missing?”



Grandmother saw one of the Queen’s corgis run into the group of marching guards so she went and caught it. A Royal Guard thanked her and told her to go in Buckingham Place. Grandmother was invited to have a cup of tea.


The Queen has just left the room after having afternoon tea with Paddington Bear. Grandmother sits at the table and the servant brings out a fresh tea pot of tea.

More to post on this story.

The Sport Family are on a Motorhome Holiday


 

The Sport family have parked the motorhome by a tree. Mr Sport is cooking on the barbeque while the family relaxes. Lemon Meringue and Strawberry Shortcake have just come out of the water with their Jet Ski boat and are resting by the same tree.


Mr Sport has the barbeque going well and they will eat soon.


Their dog is barking at the Springer Spaniel that is in the motorhome. They found the dog abounded wandering along the side of the road .They will let the dog out when they have finished eating.


Martha has introduced herself to Lemon Meringue and Strawberry Shortcake and is looking at their Jet Ski boat. Mrs Sport invites them to stay and eat with them but they decline because they are expected back at their camp site now.


Tea is ready and the family gather around the table and eat their meal. The dog is standing too close to the barbeque. After they have eaten the family go for a walk in the cool bushy area.


The next morning the family go down to the river where they are able to have a ride on a Jet Ski boat.


Ben and Connie are also on holiday and are staying at a caravan park. This is the caravan they are staying in.


Ben calls out to Connie to pass him a beer.

It’s Monday morning and Grandmother is in the outside laundry doing the family’s washing as well as looking after her grandson, Adam.



The Grandparents have taken their grandchildren out for the afternoon and have gone to the grapefruit oblong where the children have to walk through the nearly waist high grapefruit from one end to the other. 



The children are looking in at the Lego Countdown Supermarket. Pieces of Lego were given to customers last year to build a supermarket. They are allowed to go into the supermarket and have a play.

This Lego Technic boy is 9 cm high.

The children are playing in the snow.


The children are going to go into the igloo.
