Highlight

Selamat Siang,

This week, students in the Leadership Centre have been riding the highs from district cross country, where a number of our peers have made it into divisions! We are so proud of all their efforts on Monday!

This week we have been exploring three-dimensional shape construction and their nets, looking and drawing different perspectives, trying to solve real world problems using our knowledge of shapes. On Tuesday we worked with our Buddies for National Simultaneous Story time, where we listene to ‘Bowerbird Blues’ by Aura Parker and then helped our buddies complete an activity. 

 

Have a wonderful weekend,

5/6 Leadership Team
