The Angsana Tree children (4yo) revisited the compost layered last week.

NY: Where are the apples?
E: Are there worms?
V: I found a long stick to stir it!
L: 没有了。还有叶子

As guided by the @foodcitizensg , we "tossed the salad" and will leave it to rest and mature for 2 to 3 months. We are excited to make this new pile of "salad"! We are eagerly waiting for it to be ready for our edible garden.

We kick-started our composting practice on Earth D

We kick-started our composting practice on Earth Day. With guidance from Chingwei and Cuifen from @foodcitizensg , our kindergarteners layered food scraps, wood shavings and browns in 3 wire meshes.

"The microbes will chomp it up!"
"They are good for the earth"

Do you know the soil on earth would only sustain us for the next 60 years? This is why composting is important to regenerate our soil, and hence we have started on this journey. Happy Earth Day! Make Every Day Earth Day!

Happy World Water Day 💦 We are showering the Ea

Happy World Water Day 💦 We are showering the Earth with ways we will show our care and love for her. Our discussions with the children range from groundwater to the ocean, making connections with the class projects and believing that they are changemakers. With Earth Day coming up, we are excited to bring about more awareness and spending more time to 'Invest in Our Planet' 🌎

We celebrated World Wildlife Day (3 March 2022) by sharing stories about endangered animals, which is the graduating cohort's new and exciting project!

Through the different storybooks brought in by the K2 children, we discovered endangered animals near and far, gained awareness and new perspectives! We are looking forward to documenting how this project evolves in the upcoming months.

Do you know what are the endangered animals in Singapore? Share your answers in the comments!

"Let's build a ravine! Come, help us!" - A, 5y 11m

The weekly sand play routine encourages the children to ask questions, problem solve, negotiate and make new discoveries. Their persistence in trying out new solutions and making them work, shows that children are capable of constructing their own learning through play.

In the edible garden, I (4y11m) was invited to document his friends at work. "I want to take a video of them too."

Over the last 2 weeks, the children and teachers designed, put together and set up the signage to label the luffa and long beans.

We transited into 2022 discovering Olive-backed Sunbirds in an existing nest! Last year, a chick was blown out of its nest and so we are on a mission to keep them safe this time round. The children and teachers brainstormed and tried many ways to stabilise the nest.

"… we put some soft things inside (the white basket) so that the baby bird will not get hurt." - L, 5yo.

New birds are visiting our edible gardens and we are very happy and excited to observe new interactions in the ecosystem.

The K2s have spent the past three months exploring

The K2s have spent the past three months exploring, experimenting and creating artifacts with polymer clay and are now ready to sell them to raise funds for a charity of their choice. This practice of raising funds through handmade/ preloved items has been a B2T tradition that we treasure, and has special meaning as the theme of this year is civic consciousness! Here's what our K2 artisans are saying in their process of creation:

"We are working like we're in a factory!" - B

"It's very difficult but feels so fun." - K

"The more we do, the more money we will have to help other people." -Ki

LIVE: Lucky lucky us! We have not one but 3 large

LIVE: Lucky lucky us! We have not one but 3 large hornbills sitting in our tree at school today. The children are really excited and some are suspicious.

"I saw something in its mouth. I think it's a lizard."
- I, 4yo

We know this is the start of many conversations about birds today. What a lovely surprise!

Project ‘Flamingo’ was selected out of a votin

Project ‘Flamingo’ was selected out of a voting session with the children (4yo). In the initial phase, the Angsana Tree families were encouraged to bring the children to Jurong Bird Park for further observation. Inspired by a song introduced in class, the children then showed great interest in how the flamingo moves. Later, they enjoyed finding out more about the bird through reading informational books with the teachers. Working down from head to toes, the Angsana Tree children have been exploring the different parts of the flamingo. They were then invited to reuse cardboard materials as a medium to make sculptures (of the beak, head, and neck).

Creating the sculptures was a collaborative process by the children and teachers as they had to problem-solve and figure out how to keep the neck attached. The hot glue gun turned out to be such a crucial tool in assembling the plastic and paper materials together!
