From the Music Choice Board

Thank you to everyone who has shared their Music from home. Many students making and designing their own instruments, singing and dancing to their favourite songs and learning about the music their family members love too.

Kurtley made a bugle using a hose, the top of a plastic top, a tap fitting and some duct tape so he could play The Last Post.

Astin played his largerphone that he made with his grandpa back in February.

Delilah made a shaker to play in Music.

Sonny learning to play the ukulele with his dad.

Aurelie designed a new guitar. A bell rings as you strum the guitar strings.

Fun Friday Projects

Well done to all of the Grade 3s and 4s! You have all been so responsible, respectful and resilient as you’ve been learning from home. Each Friday the students will be having Fun Friday! Last week, they chose between 6 projects to do at home. We had chefs, researchers, game developers, artists and scientists! Here are some pictures of the kids in action. You’re doing an amazing job - thank you to the 3/4s and their families!

5/6 Senior Learning Area

The Year 5 and 6 children, along with their families have been working hard while learning lots at home.  It has been amazing to read some of the work being done and more the comments that show us that they are self-managers and thinkers:

We are so grateful for the support of parents and siblings as they too have joined us on this learning journey.

 

Here are some examples of their thinking and learning:
