Grade 5 and 6

Term Two is flying by with a jam packed few weeks which have included two camps, sporting events, picnics, production rehearsals and more! 

CAMP

All the Grade 5s and 6s have had an absolutely incredible time together at Gelantipy. We braved the cold, climbed the highest mountain, soared through the sky on a zipline, danced our hearts out in front of a bon fire, paddled through rapids down the Snowy River and shared  innumerable unforgettable memories with each other. It has been a joy to watch as new friendships blossomed and our whole community strengthen as we have worked together through these experiences. Please enjoy some of the highlights and photos from our time. We are sure there have been so many amazing stories and memories shared already!

CROSS COUNTRY

Congratulations to the Grade 5 and 6 students who gave their best effort at our recent Cross Country event. It was an excellent culmination of many weeks of training. As always, a real highlight of the day was the buddy race, which saw the Grade 6 students run with their Prep buddy. Good luck to all our students who will be racing at District in the coming weeks.

TEDDY BEARS' PICNIC

Our Grade 6 students were excited to be invited by their Prep buddy to the Teddy Bears' Picnic. All the students gathered under the oak tree with their teddy and a delicious array of snacks and shared stories . Thank you to the Prep buddies, their families and teachers for organising the event. We look forward to reciprocating your generosity later in the year.
