Level 2

Dear Level 2 Families,

It has been a busy and exciting term in Level 2! Students have been working hard across all learning areas, and we are so proud of their creativity, curiosity, and enthusiasm for learning. Here’s a snapshot of what we’ve been up to, along with some important upcoming events.

Writing

Students have been researching fascinating minibeasts and turning their findings into information reports. Each student presented their work as a colourful and informative poster. We were so impressed with their ability to research, write clearly, and creatively showcase their learning.

Reading

Our reading focus this term has been on synthesising. Students explored how to combine different pieces of information to form a deeper understanding. They practised skills such as synthesising characters’ feelings, looking across different perspectives, and combining visual and text clues using a range of rich mentor texts.

Mathematics

In Maths, students have been exploring the meaning of multiplication and division through engaging, hands-on activities. This has helped them build strong foundations for understanding number patterns and problem-solving.

Inquiry

Inquiry has been super fun! Students have been designing their very own imaginary minibeasts, inspired by real-life insects and creatures. Next, they will write an information report about their creation, build a model of their minibeast, and design a habitat to present as a diorama. We can’t wait to see their final projects!

Father’s Day Morning

We had such a wonderful morning celebrating Father’s Day with our Level 2 families! The day began with a delicious breakfast, followed by a special assembly. Families were then invited into classrooms for an open session, where students proudly worked alongside their dads and special guests on a fun activity. It was a beautiful way to celebrate the important role fathers and father figures play in our community.
