Mount Pleasant Road Primary School & Kindergarten

Inquiry Centre

Highlight

Another week of huge efforts from students in the Inquiry Centre with our Cold Write recounts of our trip to Disneyland! It's so great to see the students' writing skills continuing to develop and being applied to their work. 

We continued the Disneyland theme in Maths, where we have been designing our own theme parks with a big focus on shape and location. 

In Literacy and Guided Inquiry we have begun to look at story boarding in preparation for creating our own versions of fairytales over the coming weeks. 

A big congratulations to Ishaan Trivedi for winning the Public Speaking Competition! Ishaan will be heading to Rangeview Primary School to represent MPRPS.
