For Earth day we have been curious about different animals around the world. We have been looking at books teaching us about endangered animals and why they are endangered. We saw a video about orangatans and their habitat is being destroyed for palm oil. We saw a video about sea turtle migration. Greenpeace has some good child friendly animations. We care very much for the world around us and all the creatures. We made a newspaper to share our knowledge. We even recycled our srap paper to make new rainbow coloured paper. We found a puddle with pollution in it from a car. We see garbage everywhere. We are doing our part, how about you.

We went to the pond inlet today. The waterfall is not working yet. We noticed the lilypads and cattails have been removed. We are concerned about the fish and frogs. Hopefully there habitat is okay. After we played in the playground. It's a beautiful day.
Written by S Robitaille. Tuesday was an eventfull day. Everything seemed fine until lunch time. While we were resting a fox wandered into the circle across form the childcare. The fox seemed to be limping. We had to be prepared for if it came near us outside. Luckily it wandered off in the distance while we came outside. Then while we were playing at the little forest (aka the island infront of Lowenburg) ww noticed black smoke rising above the sports plex. ER thought it was a factory fire. M thought it was a vehicle crash on the hyw. Mostly we were hoping no one was hurt. We listened for the emergency vehicle to come. We watched for the smoke to change colour to gray
Today we added some logs to the seniors fort. We noticed that under the bark there were potato bugs and trails from bugs. We looked at a picture of the emerald ash bourer who has been eating the trees. After we built a fort at the old junior camp. We worked together. After they decorated the fort with dishes to make it more colourful. Written by S Robitaille. ES and M were playing limbo too.
The children noticed that some of the new children at the centre have medical plans. They were asking why the child is up on the wall. I explained that some have allergies and need special medicine. They wanted to know what type of medicine. An Epi-pen is needed. I explained how it is used and showed an information video. I brought in up one of the training pens ( no needle or medicine).
Anyone who wanted to try it could. We talked about that you can not use it unless you are sick and can not breath. It is only for emergencies. At first some were nervous. Most tried it on themselves. I did offer my thigh but they wanted to feel it. Written by S Robitaille. This week we have visited the track at the new sports plex several times. The children enjoy standing on the numbers and taking off after the standard " on your mark, get set, go".
