Innovation and Design

Term 1 has been very successful and exciting for our students and teachers. We have been impressed by student engagement and learning in the classroom. 

Foundation 

Our wonderful Foundation students have explored patterns. Students have learnt to copy, repeat and continue simple patterns. Taking this further, students have learnt to create their own patterns using various concrete materials and then have represented patterns through drawing with coloured pencils and crayons. 

Year 1

Year 1 students have learnt about being safe while using their device and going online. Students have learnt about what information is safe to share online, the personal, private and public online spaces and which applications they use belong in each of these spaces.

Year 2

Year 2 students have focussed on Cyber safety. They have identified their trusted adults to go to when they have questions or problems whilst using their device, in order to stay safe whilst online. Year 2 students have learnt about personal, private and public online spaces and what information is safe to share online and what information to keep private and safe.
