Specialist Program

In the art room.....

Students have busy in the art room creating some Easter artwork. They've done a terrific job! I'm so proud of what our students achieve.  Take a look at what they've done...

Some of our Prep students' Easter bunnies...

From the Grade 1 & 2 students.... patterned Easter eggs. They printed overlapping circles then carefully applied watercolour paints to each section.

From the students in grades 3 & 4.... from roving wool fibres to wet-felted balls...

From wet-felted balls to little Easter chicks with nests to nestle in (in the chicken sense, not the nest in the tree sense!)....

Grade 5 & 6 students have been busy making Easter bunnies through the process of dry-felting roving wool fibres onto  poly balls, then adding arms, legs, ears, eyes, a nose and of course a little fluffy bunny tail...

Well done, students, on a great term 1!  Happy holidays and see you all next term.

Performing Arts

Prep: Well done to all the Preps who have settled in so well to our specialist program! During the last few weeks we have enjoyed exploring emotions through song and dance, acting out picture story books and playing the popular "musical statues" game. 

Grade 1-4: This term the students have done a terrific job deciding on who their puppet will be (age, characteristics, emotions, jobs etc), then creating them, finding their voice and finally performing with them.  I hope the puppetssettle into your families well and perhaps lead to some fun play dates or further performances over the holidays.... Below are some pictures from each grade.

Grade 5/6: The students are finalising their Storybook Soundscape for their buddies and will be sharing this with them early Term 2. I'm so proud of the creativity, resilience and teamwork I've seen this term. Can't wait to see what they are capable of in Term 2!
