TERM THREE
COMO HOUSE AND GARDENS EXCURSION
On Tuesday 2nd September, the Foundation students went on their very first excursion to Como House and Gardens. The students had an amazing time exploring the house and gardens and this provided the opportunity for students to compare the life of 19th Century children and families to their own experiences. They played a variety of olden day games including sack races, quoits, croquet and egg and spoon races.
They explored the historical Como House which gave them an insight into what life was like in the 19th century. They even danced in the ballroom!
The students experienced what life was like as a maid at Como House and hand washed clothes using a washboard and a wringer! They listened to a variety of bells to determine which room they were required to wait on and practised walking with silver trays of drinks.

Term Three Specialist timetable
When students are participating in Health and Physical Education (HPE) and Perceptual Motor Program (PMP) it would be best if they were wearing sneakers or shoes that they can move around in. Please note that this timetable can change! We will keep you updated if this occurs.
