Happy Diwali

This week we have been celebrating Diwali with all students. We have been learning about the traditions of this celebration and cooking and enjoying our special place in the library.

 

 

 

 All students have cooked a sweet or savory treat to share. 

 

 

 

Thank you to the students that have contributed to the display and many thanks to Miss Ravinder and Ruma for supplying food for our staff to enjoy. 

 

 

Our celebrations continued with Miss Ravinders class performing for the Preschool  Students and Room 12 and Room 16. 

 

 

Then we all joined in......

 

 

 

 

Also this term we are trialing a new reading program that is accessible at school and home.

There are also 30 non-fiction titles in the Discovering section for cross-curricular learning for fluent readers.

Have a look around on the site as there is lots of activities  - quizzes and games.
