Prep

Can you believe it is over halfway through Term 4 already? We have so much fun planned for our Prep friends before the end of their very first school year!

Continuing from our writing success from Term 3, Prep students will continue to build their skills in Narrative writing. This term, we have been brainstorming interesting problems and solutions that might occur in our stories. 

Prep students have loved exploring our Integrated topic for the first half of this term, Creativity! Throughout this unit, the Prep students will be using their critical and creative thinking to explore various topics such as completing Mr Squiggle drawings or creating objects with hands-on materials. We are currently introducing our new integrated topic, Connections. The Connections unit encourages students to create connections between themselves and their peers when exploring likes and dislikes, or real-world connections through discussions of cultural celebrations such as Halloween, Diwali and Christmas. 

How lucky were we to have a fete at OPS!! It was a fantastic afternoon. Thank you to everyone that came along and got involved with the rides, food stalls, market shops, petting zoo and much more!

Well done to everyone for a fantastic Dance Production!! It was so much fun learning our dances and getting to perform them on the big stage! 

We can’t wait to complete more buddies sessions this term with our Grade 5 buddies, and possibly visit the kitchen for some Christmas baking if we are lucky!

We can’t wait for the rest of the Term 4 fun ahead!

From the Prep team.
