Student Well-being
Community Spotlight: Year 1/2 Community
In the Year 1/2 community we have been meeting up with our class to check in with how we are feeling and sharing any thoughts, highlights and concerns of our day.
We’ve had fun participating in house/school scavenger hunts where we need to find something that begins with a certain letter or a certain colour.
Check us out in the picture showing Miss Marakis something that is red.
We also have been getting active and moving in our favourite Go Noodle videos. One of our favourites is Fabio’s Meatball Run. We have to duck, jump, kick and dodge left and right to get through the obstacles.
Some of us even watched the Lucas the Spider video which showed us how to be a good friend.
