Principal's Report -

Term 2 Week 5

It certainly has been a very busy term so far. The 3 / 4 children had a great time at the Outdoor School – 15 Mile Creek Campus challenging themselves on a number of different activities which included climbing wall, flying fox , bike riding, bridge building ,hut building, orienteering and camping out in the tents. They all appeared to have a great time and came back to school with lots of stories.

Athletics

A great day was had by all the children on the day. All children participated well and performed to the best of their abilities. A number of the Moyhu children were successful in gaining a place as an age champion. Age champions were 12/13 girls Lily Shanley 1st, Ivy O’Connor 3rd , 12/13 boys Lachlan Suffield 1st, 11 girls Mia Atkinson-Reiffel  3rd, 10 Boys Sam Morey 1st, Charlie Suffield 2nd, 10 girls Ascha O’Connor 2nd, 7 girls Natalie Walker 2nd, 5/6 Boys Kolbie Scanlon 3rd.

We also had a number of children awarded with the good sportsmanship award These were Lily Shanley 12/13 girls, Maddison Kelly 10 girls, Teagan Kelly 8 girls and Natalie Walker 7 girls.

I would like to thank the parents and Lions Club for cooking the BBQ and selling drinks for the day. A special thanks to Bec Hansted who managed the activity and bought all the food etc for the day.

Naplan

The year 3 and 5 children sat the NAPLAN test last week. These tests look at numeracy, writing, reading and grammar skills. The tests are designed to gradually get more difficult as the test progresses. The children who sat the testing tried very hard and did their best which was great credit to them. 

Year 4, 5, 6 Camp to Melbourne

Permission notes will go home tomorrow for this upcoming camp on the 12th and 13th of June. A further requirements list will go home next week. This will be a great camp that we have organised for the children to complement both their inquiry unit on government studies and experiencing Melbourne.
