Selamat Siang,

This term, Foundation students have been working on numbers one to ten and days of the week. You may have even seen the spectacular days of the week paper chain that came home last week!

In 1/2, students have been learning all about different forms of transport. In the last few sessions, students have begun investigating forms of transport that aren’t as common in Australia, such as the becak and bajai. It’s been so amazing for students to share their text to self connection and discuss experiences of transport from other countries!

3/4s have begun creating or building Rumah Adat in Indonesian, following on from looking at house vocabulary. You should be able to see their amazing portfolios of their Rumah Idaman (Dream House) on Seesaw, now!

In 5/6, students have begun creating a project that represents one of the eight celebrations we’ve learnt about this term. Students are demonstrating their leadership, creativity and time-management as they choose how they represent their celebration!

Terima Kasih, 

Marissa Mundy, Yana Gill, Treesje Butterworth, Emma McCoy, and  Stephanie Muratovic.
