I am a Cicada

I am a Cicada
By Matilda

I am Cicada,
I lay eggs.
I can fly and I drop from my nest immediately.
I have a male friend.
He has a drum on his abdomen; this is how he found me.
My babies are called nymphs.
I live underground for 17 years and I only come out when it’s time to have babies.

Beach trip

Dear Parents & caregivers,

On Wednesday 18th March from 12.45 - 2.30pm we will be going to the beach as a part of our Inquiry. 

After eating our lunch, the walking group will be doing a short walk around the beach to build up our KM's and the flora & fauna group will be sketching the flora and fauna they see on the beach.

We need parent helpers to walk the children to and from the beach and help out while we are at the beach.
If you can help please let one of your base group teachers know asap.

thanks!

Tautoru team
