This term, we are excited to dive into our new inquiry unit on Minibeasts! Students will explore the fascinating world of insects, spiders, and other tiny creatures. Through hands-on activities, observation, and research, we’ll discover the important roles these little critters play in our ecosystem. From building bug habitats to learning about life cycles, this unit will spark curiosity and deepen our understanding of the natural world. Get ready for some creepy-crawly adventures ahead!

Hello Families,
Week two has been so wonderful. We have begun Auslan again and the children really enjoy this lesson each week. We have a new student in our class. Her name is Mariana and what a delight it is to have such a kind, caring and bright student. We have also been celebrating Bethany and her upcoming wedding. This week is her last week before she goes on leave to be married. We cannot wait to see her when she returns. Lots of other learning has been taking place and other key learning areas and a lot of fun as well.
Have a safe and sunny weekend.

Then melt honey, sugar and butter together in a saucepan or microwave. Add Kelloggs cornflakes and mix well! Quickly spoon into the paper patty case and bake in a slow oven at 150 degrees for 10 mins. Cool!

Year 4 / 5 Maths Fun Game!
In Maths, we played a game called Dicey Operations in Line. It was great to play this game together with my partner and pick the cell that you wanted to put your number in. Cody and Kaone
Dicey Operations in Line is a fun and easy way to learn how to solve big addition problems. We put 3 rows with 4 cells in each, then roll a 9-sided die. You have to decide which cell to put that number in. Then at the end, you have to add all your numbers together. You win if your number is closest to 1000 but not more than 1000.
