Year One - Spotlight on Learning

Year 1’s Eventful Week: Athletics and Dance Fun!

 

Dear Families,

 

What an action-packed week it has been for our Year 1 students! The excitement kicked off with Athletics Day, where the children participated in a variety of fun-filled activities. Highlights included the High Hopper Race during the Novelty Events and the exhilarating 400-meter Points Race. A huge thank you to all the parents who joined us and helped make the day a success!

 

The week continued with an exciting dance incursion, as students got moving with the Footsteps Dance Program. They had a blast learning the 'Butter' routine from a professional dance instructor. This special program will continue every Tuesday for the next three weeks, and we can’t wait to see the children develop their dancing skills!

 

Keep up the fantastic work, everyone!

 

The Year 1 Community.
