Week 4 Update

It has been a wonderful start to the year and as usual, the term is moving very quickly. Our students and teachers are heavily engaged in high-quality teaching and learning that is challenging our students to support their growth both socially and academically. 

It's great to hear that there's been increased interest and curiosity from students and families about the bees in the Chinese Elm near Torrens. The flowering of the tree and the subsequent attraction of bees for pollen is indeed a natural phenomenon, and it's wonderful that the tree is in full bloom this year.

Reminding students about the importance of bees and encouraging them to observe and appreciate these vital pollinators in action is a fantastic educational opportunity. Bees play a crucial role in pollinating plants, which is essential for the reproduction of many flowering plants and the production of fruits and seeds.

Encouraging students and families to observe the bees as they go about their natural job not only fosters a greater understanding and appreciation of nature but also promotes environmental stewardship and conservation.

It's heartening to see LNPS embracing such opportunities to connect students with the natural world around them. Hopefully, this experience will inspire further curiosity and appreciation for the wonders of nature in the school community.
