Prep

The preps have been busy learning all about pets and how we care for pets to keep them healthy and safe. We made our own potato people to take home, used thumb prints to create little guinea pigs and even planted some cress seeds in a cup, we have been busy! 

Year 1

The grade 1’s have been learning about animals that have an exoskeleton, that means their skeleton is on the outside of their body. They used our class pets to inspire their work, making their own stick insects and yabbies. 

Year 2

The grade 2’s have been finishing up their research projects on a chosen marine animal. This week they created a model of their animal using air dry clay and a diorama of their animals habitat. The results are amazing - well done everyone!
