On Wednesday the Prep students and teachers celebrated a surprise birthday party for Milo the Monkey. All of his friends were invited and it was fantastic to see so many people make the effort to come in costume. We had Daisy the dogs, Ally the alligator, lots of Roxy the rabbits and of course Milo!
The day started with a parade of characters and the children must have felt like the papparazzi had come to St Mary's as they strutted the catwalk of our Hall for their adoring parents.
Soon there were games to play, literacy activities and of course a super abundant buffet lunch. Staff and students were very appreciative of all the families who brought in food to share matching the letters of the alphabet the children represented. We had sausage rolls for S, nuggets for N, vegetable sticks for V and some super jiggly jelly for J!
There were of course many photos taken and we have made a gallery of them
here.
We are so proud of all our little "monkeys" and how far they have come in Semester One with their sound and letter knowledge, we can't wait to see what they can do in Semester Two!
