Book Borrowing Frenzy! 

Congratulations everyone on the way you have been breaking records on the way you have been borrowing books.

I also want to let parents know that the 'Dog Man' by Dav Pilkey books are very popular. You may be interested in this event during the school holidays.

'Dog Man The Musical'

Creating Digital Solutions for our Learning

The students have been focusing on interactive ways to share their learning. Some are creating interactive slide decks and thinking about the user experience when creating their digital designs. We've been using the 'Thinglink' website to share what we have learnt about various Australian authors. Whilst others are exploring how they can share their learning using the 'Storyjumper' website. This week, during library, we were visited by Simon Collier, an educational consultant from ACARA (Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority). We will be working alongside Simon to create rich, authentic assessment tasks that will be posted on the ACARA website to assist other educators. Simon was very impressed with the high level of engagement that the students demonstrated and is looking forward to positive outcomes from this process.

A friendly reminder that Library Bags must be brought to each library session to return and borrow books!
