Our Learning

ARTS AND CRAFTS

During this fortnight at OSHC one of the activities the students enjoyed was creating a moon and stars to celebrate the special month of Ramadan.

They also made paper lanterns and Ramadan finger painting cards.

These activities support the student's awareness of cultural diversity in an inclusive environment.

Students also enjoyed Autumn tree craft, noticing the current season and its beautiful colours.

DRAMATIC PLAY

Students created water parks using magnetic connectors and pretended to enact roles during their play.

SPORTS

Over the last fortnight, students took part in various organised games and some free time played out on the oval and in the hall. A variety of sports equipment was used.

The favourite games this week were Volley King Ball and Circle King Ball.

MOVIES

The chosen G rated movies this week included Over the Hedge and Surfs Up.

News and Reminders
