After Stephie had read to Songeziwe, Songeziwe insisted on reading a book to Stephie... true bridge building!
We had a visit from the Herschel Outreach girls yesterday, and they came with a big surprise. The school has been working on a collaborative inter-grade project: the Outreach girls made 26 alphabet bags, each beautifully designed and sewn. The Foundation Phase Grade R's and 1's filled the bags with objects beginning with the relevant letter. They are magnificent! We plan to get hooks to hang them on so that they are prominently placed in the centre and can be easily accessed. What a fantastic teaching tool these will be! This has been a dream of Maurita's for a long time, and it is something I hope we can implement in all of our schools in the future. Thank you, team Herschel, for running with this fantastic community project! |
