Look what’s been happening in Year 1!

1NR - Buddies

My buddy’s name is Oscar.  He is funny and he lets me join in when he’s playing on the yard.  He’s really cool!

Flynn is my buddy this year.  We watered the plants together in his classroom. Every question he asks, I know the answer to it! He likes to play footy and I see him on the yard. It is nice to have a big buddy!.

By Joshua

My buddy has the same name as me! Jacob and I drew a picture together and we talked about all the things we like. Big Jacob has two sisters at this school and I have one.

I liked meeting Sienna on our first buddy day.  She was really kind and funny and she made me laugh!

1BC - St John’s First Aid in Schools Visit

On Wednesday 22nd February, the Year 1s participated in a First Aid in Schools incursion. 

Through a storybook, the students saw how Johnny Bear identified an emergency, put the Danger, Response and Send for help strategy into action and helped call 000 in an informative session. 

1BC learnt the first aid chant that will help us remember what to do in an emergency.

We learnt how to send for help in an emergency. You can call 000.

We read about Johnny Bear being a superhero and how we can keep ourselves safe.

By Archie

We learnt how to call out someone's name in an emergency to see if they can wake up.

By Alana

In an emergency you can call for help. You can press a button on your phone and a screen comes up or you can call 000. I liked when we learnt the first aid chant.
