To begin the unit of work, students participated in an entry event where they were asked to decorate a biscuit with a friend. After decorating their biscuit, students were then asked to eat their biscuit. The students began to question, how could this be done with only one biscuit between two people?
After exploring this concept and problem, the students returned to brainstorm their ideas. The driving question was created with the students using keywords and ideas from their entry event which will help the teachers develop their learning for the term.
During our entry event, we were lucky enough to have Father Andrew attend as a guest visitor to the Stage 2 classroom. Stage 2 loved having Father Andrew there to help guide our thinking for our big learning this term!

As we continue our focus on Bullying No Way Week this week, it’s beautiful that we can also reflect on the amazing models we have who share our Catholic faith!!! Last week we celebrated St Mary MacKillop. What a perfect example of someone who put the needs of others ahead of her own!!! An example of loving all people, especially children, and finding ways to ensure that each and every child was treated equally and had the same opportunities no matter what their circumstances. This week is a time to really highlight the importance of understanding and kindness. Let’s always endeavour to treat others the way we want to be treated - with love and kindness. 🧡💜🧡💜 Don’t forget Orange/purple mufti TOMORROW (13.08.25)
