From the Year 5 Classroom
Sacred Heart Primary School Yarrawonga
Bendigo Excursion
The students had a great time at the Discovery Centre Bendigo checking out the Planetarium and all things space, the general exhibits including Lego and the vertical slide that gave many students some nervous moments at the top!
Year 5 Kinder Visits
The students have been participating in kinder visits in preparation for meeting their buddies later in the term. Visits have been and will continue to be at Yarrawonga Preschool, Trikki Kidz, Country Buddies (Woods Road and Zorro Drive) and Goodstart Early Learning Centre. It is a very exciting time for our Year 5s and they are all looking forward to this, and other Leadership opportunities, they will be undertaking this term including an ASPIRE leadership day and a Year 5 Mercy Values leadership day.

Year 6 2027 T-shirt and Rugby top
The Year 5s have been busy designing their Year 6 shirts for next year. Designs were created and shared with the Year 5 cohort, who voted for their favourite design. Next year, rather than hoodies, the Year 6s will have the opportunity to purchase a rugby jumper to wear throughout the year. Please see the final designs below. To ensure delivery of the polo shirts prior to the beginning of term 1 next year, we ask that you visit Judds to try on the shirt and rugby jumper and place your order. Sample tops will be available in store as of Monday 26th October. Orders need to be placed by Friday 13th November. We are waiting to hear back regarding the price of the polos and rugby jumper and will let you know as soon as we do.
**Please note: Rugby jumpers take a little longer to manufacture and will be delivered by mid-late February 2027.
