Today was the first day that the kindergarten students played on the big structure with the grade 1 and 2 students at recess.

The morning class are listening to the new playground rules.

We spent some time on the big structure all alone this morning in order to be better prepared at recess time.

The children were very excited to try out some of the climbing activities on the big structure.

The double slide was a big hit.

There is just so much more space to play.

The boys and girls have to listen very carefully to announcements at the start of the day to see when it is our day to play on the structure again.

The afternoon class.

Having fun on a gorgeous spring day!

There was lots of running and exploring new things.

Playing on the big structure means that we are one step closer to grade 1!!!
