At the end of Term 2, Stage 2 students participated in a ‘fun day’ to celebrate and acknowledge the tokens they had collected for being safe, respectful and responsible learners.
Students spent the morning involved in a variety of creative activities such as drawing and colouring in, and using origami to make and create animals.
A number of students participated in the game Charades, where they acted out an action or object presented on a card.
This proved to be challenging for some as no talking is involved! The board game Headbanz, and the card game Uno were also enjoyed by many of the students.
Skill, patience and concentration were needed by many students as they joined in a Jenga tournament, where students competed against each other to keep the tower of blocks from falling over.
Our Stage 2 ‘fun day’ continued with our Stage 2 space being turned into a mini cinema and students watched the movie Coco.

Last week our Year 3 students completed the entire writing process, moving from planning, drafting, editing, re-drafting, editing, all the way through to publishing!! They composed and published stories inspired by Dreamtime narratives they have read during their learning time. Year 3 were then so excited and proud to share their stories with Kindergarten. What a wonderful achievement. 💛📖💛📖💛📖💛📖💛📖💛📖

As part of Year 5’s Science unit, students explored how engineers and inventors use creativity and problem-solving to make everyday life better. Their learning intention was: We are learning how to use design processes to explore opportunities and develop effective solutions. Given only rubber bands, marbles, and a piece of fabric, students worked collaboratively to design inventions that could help people stay cool on hot summer days. From hats and bonnets to neck protectors, and even a handheld fan weighted down by marbles, our young designers showed innovation, teamwork, and critical thinking. Proving that even simple materials can inspire amazing solutions! 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛
