An Engaged Learning Community

In 1/2 we are reaching for the stars!

We have been practising how to stay focused and respectful so that we can be ready to learn.

In FBI, we have been learning about sacred places. Did you know that sacred places are very special and help us to connect to the land and our community? Uluru is a sacred place that is well known to the whole of Australia and is especially important to the Indigenous community. We all did a painting of Uluru after we found out lots of information about it. We also have local places that are sacred to us, like our church, the cemetery, special trees and even parts of our garden. We wanted to share with you how sacred places make us feel.
