School Captain's Report
Dear families,
Wow, what a wonderful start to the year. Here is some information about term 1. First, we will tell you about what has happened so far.
We want to give you some information about the preps' start to the year. It has been great to see all the new preps bonding and hanging out with their buddies. Everyone had so much fun in our first buddy session, where we made portraits of each other to put on our buddy's locker. The preps have also enjoyed counting to ten and twenty, making dinosaurs, and copying a book to include them.
The Juniors have been learning about puzzles, addition , planning their writing, number lines, learning, and more. In Indonesian, they have enjoyed 'would you rather' and learning new words like different kinds of foods. In class, they have been learning how to add numbers and put numbers on number lines.
The middles have enjoyed doing stem, working on their handwriting, making Mr Men characters and playing Minecraft. In maths, they’ve been doing addition, subtraction multiplication and division.
In term 1 the SLA have participated in bike education which will be on a Thursday morning till the end of term 1. We have had a fantastic experience learning about bikes. Focusing on bike control and hazards , along with communicating with our fellow riders during riding in groups of 6.
