Be Awesome Day - Thankyou!!

We want to say a MASSIVE thankyou to each of you for your donations to our stalls as well as your willingness to help out during the day. We had an amazing time and it would not have been possible without your support. A big thankyou also to Mrs Schulz for all of her hard work in organising Be Awesome Day and also to Em Clohesy and our Parent Club for planning the School Colour Run!

Grandparents Day 

It was such a wonderful time celebrating Grandparents Day with many of our grandparents (and great-grandparents!). Thankyou so much to all those who were able to come along and join in our classroom activities. We hope you had as much fun as we did!

Learning in Weeks 7 & 8

Mathematics: We will be continuing on with Division during this fortnight of Fluid Groups and will expand on our knowledge of Angles in Applied Maths by learning how to use a protractor. 

Writing & Reading: In Writing, students will be writing an Informative piece all about one of our neighbouring countries - New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Fiji, Samoa, Indonesia, Vanuatu or Timor Leste. Using all of the information that they have collected, they will then design a brochure all about their chosen neighbouring country. In Reading, we will continue to 'unpack' a few different age-appropriate picture story books. Students have really enjoyed exploring a variety of themes while considering the different visual and written elements that authors use to create a story. 

Topic: Students are to continuing to work on their detailed maps of their islands. They are also painting their islands in Art class to make them look more realistic - how good do they look!!
