Selamat Siang, 

A huge well done to everyone who participated in district swimming. As always, we appreciate the support from the community during these events. We were so proud of all the children who participated and congratulations to those who made it through to division. It was a really successful day. Great work everyone! 

Specialist Feature News -  Science 

This term in Science, our Foundation students have been learning about the human body, focusing on their senses of smell, hearing, and sight. In the coming weeks, they will continue their exploration with activities on taste and touch. They will also be learning about the bones in our bodies, the importance of healthy teeth, and how proper hand washing helps eliminate germs.

Meanwhile, our Year 3/4 students have been investigating forces, specifically the difference between contact and non-contact forces. Over the past two weeks, they have explored friction by designing and testing different road surfaces for a moving car. Keep an eye out for their findings, which will be shared on Seesaw in the coming weeks!

Terima kasih!
