Happy Mother's Day

To all the Mum's, Step-Mums, Grandma's, Great Grandma's out there on Mother's Day. To all the foster parents, the sisters, aunties and friend, that help to raise us - we say Happy Mother's Day. To those in our community who aren't or can't be with their mum today,  we hope you capture a quiet moment to reflect and pay tribute to the incredible person your mum was. You too are in our thoughts today.

Since we last wrote, the students of Grade 5 and 6 have been actively learning and reflecting on their current understandings. 

In Writing, we have presented our Information Texts about our research on ANZAC Day and related topics. A highlight from a few students has been investigating their family history on the National Archives of Australia Website. It has been an eye opening experience for students to see and read, historic artefacts about their own families. For those families interested you can begin your search at https://recordsearch.naa.gov.au/
