Preschoolers revel in snow day

ACG Strathallan

Youngsters at ACG Strathallan Preschool donned their warmest woollies to revel in two tonnes of snow delivered to the centre. They threw it, tasted it, rolled in it and got it in their gumboots.

Youngsters at ACG Strathallan Preschool donned their warmest woollies to revel in two tonnes of snow delivered to the centre. They threw it, tasted it, rolled in it and got it in their gumboots.
 
For many, it was their first experience of snow and they made full use of the sensory experience. “Some children needed some encouragement to join in, but from that point forward, they were unstoppable,” said Preschool teacher Amy Haigh. “It was wonderful seeing the looks of joy on their faces and the wonder as they touched it for the first time.”
 
At ACG Strathallan Preschool, we introduce children to a love of play and learning by creating opportunities to explore, experiment, solve problems and express themselves as individuals.
 
·         Places are available now at all levels
·         20 hours ECE available for 3–5 year-olds
·         Prices start from $35 per day
 
Call now to arrange a visit! Phone 0800 222 899.

"My wife is from the Philippines, I’ve got one brother who’s married to a Japanese girl, another brother who’s married to a lady who was born in Samoa. So very much a multi-cultural family now. Auckland’s become multi-cultural and I think if we take that onboard and learn from each other’s culture, pick out the best parts and make that our own culture."
