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!

ASH WEDNESDAY is always a special time in our liturgical calendar. A time that marks the start of LENT - taking the time to prepare for Easter. Time to think about how we can make a positive difference to the lives of others. Jesus sacrificed everything for us, so how can we find ways to show gratitude for his sacrifice!!! πβοΈπβοΈπβοΈπβοΈπβοΈ

Itβs time to celebrate all our February birthdays at St Bernadetteβs! This year we even have a leap year baby so he gets to choose to celebrate today or tomorrow - I wonder what heβll choose!!! Our kids have had a great month celebrating with family and friends, eating out at restaurants, going to Luna Park & Lasor Tag; having parties at home; eating some fabulous cakes; and receiving some pretty fabulous gifts including LEGO, a new phone, even a present from their Year 6 Buddy! However they have celebrated, their smiles tell the stories!! ππππππ₯³ππ

Last week I had to shift my support to the NRL because we had the Parramatta Eels come out to school to talk about positive wellbeing and of course promote the game of Rugby League. While Iβm not an Eels fan we certainly had a few fans around and I loved listening to the players and the positive advice they had for our students!!! BTW our kids asked some pretty AMAZING questions - we were so proud of them!!! ππππππππππ
