Mothers Day
Last Friday we welcomed our Mothers and significant people to join us in a special assembly and into the classrooms so the children could share their learning.
Playgroup
This week Playgroup enjoyed buying their snack from the Wonderful Mrs Kane in the Canteen, making a shopping list, sorting money and spray painting.
Cooking With Mrs Kane
Last week 5/6 Red spent some time with Mrs Kane learning to cook pikelets.
Book Buddies
Last week we started 'Book Buddies' with the whole school involved. The children meet their buddies at 3-3.10pm every Monday for the rest of this term. The children seem to be enjoying this time together, reading and listening to a story, focusing not only on the fluency but also comprehension skills. This is also a time to show respect, encourage friendships and a love of reading.
5/6 White Science
The students were inquiring into how static electricity works and collaborating to create electrical circuits. Lots of fun and interactive science in 5/6 White.
