Arsham 6M - This term I've really enjoyed reading the class novel "Sick Bay". I loved how it portrayed a different perspective to primary school and I could easily relate and connect to the characters as they are primary school students in Grade Six just like me.  I enjoyed reflecting on each chapter and writing about different events that occurred in the story as well as taking notice how the respective characters felt in these moments. 

Dorsa 6J - This term we went to Athletics. I enjoyed high jump and I did not give up! I also liked spending quality time with my friends on Athletics Day.

Zoe 6C - I was living overseas for three years, and I’ve returned to Doncaster Primary School and I’m so happy to be back!! On the first day back, my friends were waiting for me at the gate. The activities I enjoyed this term were cooking and athletics.  We cooked hamburgers at Doncaster Secondary College, and they were yummy, I learnt to cook!! On Athletics Day I was in the Flinders and Phillips group, and I liked the hurdles. I also enjoy Art and drawing with paints, and finally I enjoy Maths because it’s easier than Maths in China.

Lavina 6C - During Term Three the activities that I enjoyed the most were cooking at Doncaster Secondary College and Athletics Day. My favourite events were the 800-meter sprint, shotput and discus.  We got to stay in our house colours, and I am in Lawson. Monash and Lawson were grouped together for 12-to-13-year girls.  We competed in many sports, while some of us didn’t win medals, we tried our best to win medals. This term, the Year Six students also cooked at the commercial kitchen at Doncaster Secondary College, we made hamburgers and coconut balls, we learnt many new skills, teamwork and ate delicious food.
