Year 3/4 Day Camp

On Wednesday 24th April the Year 3/4 students had an unforgettable day camp to the Enchanted Adventure in Arthurs Seat. Mrs Saville, Mrs McLoughlin, Mrs Glen and Mrs Stow travelled with the happy campers and here are their reflections:

Jacob- The day camp was amazing. My favourite thing was the tree top climbing adventure and the tyre slide. I went on the slide about 3 times!

Daniel- I liked the tree climbing because it was fun to slide across and jump off the course.

Jake- I was surprised at how good it was. I loved the tree surfing and the tyre slides. I liked going to the beach at night for dinner.

Brianna- It was fun because one of the activities got me out of my comfort zone. I was scared to let go and fall off the edge on the flying fox, but I did it! It was a big adventure. We went to the beach for dinner and I found an oyster shell.

Alessia- I enjoyed going on the tyre slides. Mrs Saville and I had a turn together and it was so funny. I thought we were going to fall out.

Sadie- I loved tree surfing the best because it was scary and fun at the same time.

Violet- My favourite part was when we had pizza for dinner at the beach and we collected lots of shells.

Payton - My favourite part was the tree surfing because I took on the challenge and came out of my comfort zone. 

Taster Day

On Friday 3rd May our Year 4 students and some of our Year 5 students who hadn't had the opportunity before, were invited to attend the annual taster day at Mater Christi and   St Jospeh's College. This gave them an opportunity to experience a morning at Secondary School and a taste for the future. Many thanks to our local Catholic Secondary Schools for inviting us.

Mater Christi

Poppy- I really enjoyed making slime and I loved the scavenger hunt because it was fun. We had to find the classrooms and cross them off the sheet. At the end of the day we got a show bag and it had highlighters, a booklet, putty and a down ball.

Florence- It is a really cool school and my favourite part was when we played the Monopoly game.  I enjoyed all of the activities.

Eliza - We walked around in groups and did a treasure hunt. It was so much fun seeing what high school is like.

St Joseph's

Rory- I really loved seeing boys work well at St Joseph’s. They have great equipment and I enjoyed going to the science lab where we watched the teacher make elephant toothpaste. The sport after recess was fun too and we played octopus.

Roman- It was very different to primary school. The science labs were insanely cool and I enjoyed looking in the microscopes to discover different materials. 

Ari- I enjoyed looking through the microscopes. It was so interesting. I loved the sports activities, especially the game rock, paper, scissors.
