Artefact Artworks

This term, as part of our Topic work, Year 3/4 students created European and First Nations of Australia artefacts in their weekly Art classes. These artworks have been sent home this week. Well done to each student for their efforts in completing these awesome pieces of work! 

Exciting 3/4 Camp News!

We have some great news for all of our Grade 3/4 students (and their parents no doubt!), we have been able to secure dates to Camp Wilkins in Anglesea for Term 3, and the best bit is it is all completely FREE! This camp will be included under the State Government's Positive Start initiative to provide free experiences for Victorian school students.

The camp will run in Term 3 from 18-20th July. This camp will be in addition to the Grade 4’s Camp Kookaburra experience which will be later in Term 3. More news on both of these camps will be circulated through Compass next term.

Upcoming Fortnight

In the first two weeks of Term 2, our students will be immersing themselves in our new integrated topic all about Sustainability and Conservation. Maths will be covering a variety of concepts that relate to our unit of work. Our Writing focus will be on Persuasive/Exposition. Text studies will centre around non-fiction and information books. If your child has a particular interest in animals or habitats they are welcome to bring them in to school to read and share!
