Carol has been having some interesting conversations with the children when she does the van run. A couple of weeks again, after it had been raining, she was driving towards Ron Giorgi Park down Stanley Street, when she heard Kylah-Rose say “Carol look at all those birds”. There were a large number of seagulls congregated at the park. Carol asked Kylah-Rose what she thought they were there for as we have never seen that many before. “Do you think they are looking for food”, asked Carol, “yeah” said Kylah-Rose,” they are looking for food.” This sparked a conversation about what type of food they could be looking for, and we decided they were looking for worms. Carol told Kylah-Rose that rain usually brings worms to the top of the ground, and the seagulls were there to find them and eat them.
The next day the sprinklers were on at the same spot at the Park, and once again Kylah-Rose noticed all the birds. She told Carol that all the birds were there because they were looking for worms to eat. As there has been no more rain, or sprinklers going at the park, we have noticed no more birds looking for worms.
