We definitely miss all of the faces around the Surfside school grounds so below is an opportunity to share the work that is happening out there and see some familiar faces. Keep up the great work Surfside!
Our Foundation students have done some fantastic writing this week. Here are some samples from Emily, Matilda, Skye, Chloe, Rosie and Zac.
Max also did some great writing and made a book about a spider in space.
Leo in F2 has worked hard throughout the year on his reading. During remote learning he has been practicing his high frequency words and comprehension.
This week our Grade 1's used their creative drawing skills to include an everyday object in their drawing. We think they are very imaginative, don't you?
Our grade 2's have been working very hard on their own Fractured Fairy Tales. Here are some wonderful samples for you to enjoy.
The Grade 3s have been learning about Australian geography, human made and natural landmarks, Aboriginal culture and climate and weather.
On a map, we drew the states and territories, the weather zones and lots of Australian landmarks like the MCG and Sydney Opera house. My favourite landmark is Uluru, a massive rock in the Northern Territory, it’s really really hot and dusty there. Uluru was formed about 550 million years ago, and is a sacred Aboriginal site that is now closed to people which means you can’t climb it anymore. I can’t wait to see it one day!
Breathe A Blue Ocean
Masterpiece Challenge
2020 certainly has been challenging. We have reevaluated our priorities and reflected on the importance of empathy, self care, inner strength and resilience. Miss Clark, Mrs Henderson, Mrs Pechotsch and Mrs McCredden have all noticed your effort this year and we are so proud of you. We’re sure you have noticed your friends, family and school community trying their best to get through this year too.
So… we want to celebrate the strength and resilience everyone is showing with a very special opportunity!
Edward from Breathe A Blue Ocean has joined with us to celebrate how awesome you and our community are! Over the next week you will have the opportunity to design and create your very ownBreathe A Blue Ocean Masterpiece. 1 lucky year 5 student will have their artwork selected by Edward and he will recreate it on one of the Ocean Grove/Barwon Heads beaches!! How awesome is that?! Imagine seeing your artwork drawn into the sand, on a grand scale by Edward, the master behind Breathe A Blue Ocean! As well as that Edward wants to see everyone of your artworks and combine them together for future beach art! Everyone’s a winner!!!
Some of our students have been busy making pasta at home, using our school pasta machines. Here is Ella Verhagen, enjoying making her pasta.
Blair Carroll helped to harvest our cauliflowers and then we sold some veggies at the front of the school.
