TERM 4 FOUNDATION – NOVEMBER 2024 

We hope you are looking forward to all of the wonderful and exciting things that are happening in Term 4.  

Oktoberfest 17th October 

Students were encouraged to dress in traditional clothing and participate in multi-age German activities throughout the day, along with a parade. 

Swimming 21st October 

Foundation students were very excited during swimming week to travel to Aquanation on the bus and learning in the pool with their peers. We would like to thank our wonderful and dedicated parent helpers who were available to meet us at the pool and help students with getting changed. We appreciate your help immensely.   

Public Speaking Competition 

Foundation students have been sharing lots of special memories from their holidays through whole class sharing and writing. During Show and Tell time students have been presenting their speeches on ‘The best thing about being me’. We have been very impressed with the preparation, confidence and ideas from our Foundation students. It was a difficult task to choose just one Foundation student for the Public Speaking Competition. 

Crazy hair day – Friday 8th November 

On Friday (November 8th) the JSC ran a Crazy Hair Day for all students at Rangeview. They came to school with a crazy hair style and donated a gold coin which aims to raise money for funding a new chicken coop. Students had coloured, styled, shaved, or put gel their hair in whatever crazy design they wished!  

Inquiry – Plants and Gardens - Water Watchers Incursion 13th November & Excursion to Puffing Billy to Emerald Lake on 30th October 

This term our Inquiry unit is Plants and Gardens. Foundation students have begun looking in the school gardens and learning about the different parts of nature they can see/hear/touch/smell-trees, plants, animals and vegetables! We have had a variety of engaging activities the students enjoyed being part of to learn more about how plants grow including some planting of our own.
