Terrific Times at Dinosaur Dig Day

On the second last day of Term 3, Stage 1 students were very excited to participate in the grand finale to our Dinosaur theme - Dinosaur Dig Day! Preparations involved buying jumbo packs of jelly-jubes (for cave building), colossal quantities of choc-chip cookies (for our budding Paleontologists to carefully extract tiny choc-chip fossils) and bucket loads of sand (for hiding 'fossil' dinosaur bones in). 

Students enjoyed a variety of activities ranging from art and craft to mathematics and science-based tasks. In one activity, students were astonished at the sizes of dinosaurs which they measured out and marked using trundle wheels and traffic cones. In another, students worked in pairs with brushes to carefully sweep away sand to uncover dinosaur bones which they matched to a shadow board and guessed the type of dinosaur. The dinosaur skeleton puzzle craft was engaging, and the dinosaur lolly-cave building was a real hit! Thank you to  Mrs Hefferen, Mrs Deans, Mrs Casanova, Mrs Parsons, Ms Landstra, Miss Matts, Mrs Tate, Mrs Varga and other helpers for making the Dinosaur Dig Day a "roaring" success!

Bell Shakespeare

Three actors from Bell Shakespeare visited Nowra Christian School on Thursday 22 October. They performed "Such Sweet Sorrow" which was based on Shakespeare's play, "Romeo and Juliet". The performance was engaging and students thoroughly enjoyed the show. Students particularly commented on the COVID jokes scattered throughout the performance, including a surgical mask being worn to the ball and no kissing because of the need to maintain a 1.5 distance from others!
