Hello everybody,

 

I'm really lucky to be in Belgium during the first week of December.

The children are all waiting for the holy man Sinterklaas. Sinterklaas brings them candy and toys every year on the 6th of December.

It's a very nice feast. The children are speaking about Sinterklaas all the time.

 

Today Sinterklaas visited the school. We were all waiting for him, singing and waving with flags.

Can you see the helpers from Sinterklaas ? They are all black, that's why they call them 'Zwarte Piet' (Black Piet).

I was a little bit afraid of them...

 

Greetings from Belgium,
Jökull

Hello,

 

Look what we found on Monday morning on the playground, SNOW, SNOW, lots of SNOW!!!

The children and I enjoyed to play in the snow.

 

Next day the snow had changed into ice. It was very slippery and very dangerous to walk on the playground!

 

On Wednesday, we went out for a walk trough the city. We learned how to cross the street in a safe way. The children held my hand when we crossed the street so I got safely back to school.

Hello partners and kids,

 

Bolleke feel good these days because Advent is coming. On Sunday we celebrate the first Advent and we will light up the first candle on the Advent wreath at our homes. On Monday we will do the same in kindergarten with all children and Bolleke together. We will send you a picture next week.

This week we started to decorate the house with all kinds of things for Christmas. It’s all so beautiful ….

On the picture Bolleke sits in front of the Advent calendar in the group of Karin and Britta. All the children get a little present from that. Each day up to Christmas (the 24^th of December). The children don’t know what it will be - we will see next week too.

 

So have a nice weekend all together - We hope you can also enjoy the day in December before xmas.

 

Greetings from us all from Germany and certainly from Bolleke.

 

André

Last week in Reykjavík we had a Winter Festival and the theme was light and water.

The children have also worked with the theme, light and shadow.

Bolleke is very happy here, he is now outside and is playing with the children in the sand, he was climbing up to the castle and liked it al lot up there.

The wether has changed here in Iceland, and know it´s raining outside and the snow is going away.

Best regards from us in Iceland

Hello partners,

On the picture you can see him with a funny hat and red nose. Next time he will write you himself but at this moment he's 'doing the conga'...

Because of a misunderstanding we sent Jökull too early to Germany.

We are looking forward to the arrival of Wilder Kerl at the end of January!

Here in Belgium it hasn't been so cold in 10 years! There was a lot of snow the last 2 weeks and it was very, very cold outside! But the children enjoyed playing in the snow and on the ice very much!

On the 7th of January Jef sent you the agreements you made during the meeting in Iceland. Could you send us as soon as possible some papers of outdoor activities that are finished ?

We need the time to complete our portfolio!

Bye !
Inge from Belgíu

Hello children
In Jöklaborg the children decorated the christmastree in the hall and Wilder Kerl is helping them. Children have baked some figures to put up on the wall in each departments. That is something we do every year.

In December children invite their parents to the school and the older departments showed them a play about the birth of Jesus Christ.

Bless bless,
Wilder Kerl and all the children in Jöklaborg
