Highlight 

Selamat Siang,

On Monday the Year 4s had Basketball Day at Dandenong Stadium. We spent the day playing basketball against other schools. It was lots of fun using our teamwork and sportspersonship to build our skills in basketball. Thank you to Mrs B for organising the day for us!

This week in Literacy we were able to choose different activities to complete. There were activities that helped us learn about spelling, book cover designs, similes, metaphors, idioms, character profiles, book reviews and much more! A popular activity was Bananagrams. It is a fun game that makes us use prior knowledge of spelling rules and our character strengths of fairness and teamwork.

It has been a busy Term 3 and we hope everyone has a wonderful holiday!
