Glitter, glow, colour and some great dance moves were abound at the TPS Disco last Friday night. Reports came through that it was the best disco ever! A very big thank you to Angela Mulhall and her team of helpers for making the event happen.

Grade 5/6 Gumbuya World Excursion

Last week, Grade 5/6 students enjoyed a fun packed water safety program at Gumbuya World. A fun day was had by all!

Year 2 'Mad About Science'

Last Monday, Year 2 was impressed with the Mad About Science Show. We learnt all about ‘Kitchen Chemicals’. The yeast balloon experiment had us guessing. How big would the balloon get with all that gas? Would it pop? Luckily it didn’t.

Testing the acid levels of cabbage juice was also popular. The students were amazed when they saw the three different colours - bright pink, blue and purple.

We had to go outside to make the exploding vinegar and baking soda bags. This was the most fun!!! Hugo in 2B nearly got covered.

Finally, we made our own sherbet with a little bit of sweet, sour and fizz. What a treat!

Year 2 will finish learning about kitchen chemicals by presenting their own kitchen chemical experiments in class in Weeks 10 and 11. We look forward to some wonderful and informed presentations.

Year 1 Stay Late
