This fortnight our theme for Aistear is the book Oliver’s Vegetables. Oliver’s Vegetable is an enjoyable story which tells the story of a young boy called Oliver who only eats chips. One day Oliver goes to his grandparents’ house – where they grow their own vegetables – to the disgust of Oliver, who insists ‘I don’t eat vegetables!’ Throughout the story you see the growth in Oliver’s eating habits, when eventually you see Oliver eating carrots, spinach, rhubarb, cabbage and beetroot. This story is a great way to discuss healthy eating with children and get them learning names of different vegetables.
This fortnight we have a writing station, a construction station, a drama station and an art station. The children are really enjoying Aistear. Have a look for yourself at some of the pictures on our Gallery Page.
