Songs of the Sea





Last Thursday, Monica and Ann took Donnagh, Cian, Noah, Tarquin, Ataahua, Libby, Ruby, Zoe, Emily,and Isabella to a Capital E production at the Municipal Theatre. We also were lucky to have the help of Isabella and Emily's mum Zilda. We caught the public bus into town, and after sharing morning tea, entered the Theatre to watch the Songs of the Sea stage performance.
All the children enjoyed this outing and I think in particular, the bus ride.
Upon waiting for the bus ride home, the children also met a policeman on duty, who kindly agreed to have his photo taken with us.
All in all, an enjoyable morning out.
Through this experience, the children are developing an expectation that music, art, drama, and dance can amuse, delight, comfort, illuminate, inform, and excite, as well as an awareness of connections between events and experiences within and beyond the early childhood education setting. Monica
