Highlight 

Selamat Siang,

What a busy week we've had, preparing to move! The 1/2s have really enjoyed spending time in the 3/4 classrooms while our classrooms are being packed up. It's given the grade 2s a great opportunity to experience some of these spaces for next year. 

 

Do you know what super power you would choose if you could? The 1/2s have been writing some incredibly convincing arguments about their choices. Next week, students will be practising and presenting these speeches to their classes and given the opportunity to try out for the public Speaking competition. If your child is interested in the competition, a great thing to practise at home is their hand gestures, eye contact, pace and volume when speaking. We can't wait to hear the incredible speeches be presented. The competition is going to be tough!

 

Emma, Suzie, Miss Shaye, Amanda, Miss Emmett, Kate and Mrs Seadon.
