Last week, we launched our Religion unit for this Term. Students viewed an animated clip that linked to our unit and were asked to use clues from the video to make predictions about what they will be learning about.
The teachers then introduced the driving question to the children - ‘Why are we called to be stewards of God’s creation?’ The children had many wonderings and wrote down their questions on a post it note and placed it on our Stage ‘Need to Know’ chart.
This term also began with the entry event for Geography. Our driving question this term is focusing on “How do our interactions with other countries affect Australians' lives and their perceptions? The students played a game called “Global Trade game” in which they were assigned a country with their own designated resources.
The aim was to earn all the resources by “trading” with the other countries. The students really enjoyed this task as they imitated trading and working with countries.
Creatively, we began our new focus in Creative Arts with music. We are learning how music can be a tool to help others learn. This term, Stage 3 are going to create a different variety of songs that are aimed towards Kindergarten to help them remember things they have learnt this year. This week, they created a song to help them learn their left and right.

We love having events at school in which we can have parents, grandparents and friends join us to celebrate the learning of our children. Thankfully the rain held out enough that we could share lunch with you! Or Infants and Primary Dance groups also loved sharing their work with an audience. Well done teams. ππππππππππ

Our schools are cracking the reading code
Do you remember how you learned to read? For a vital skill that is linked to all other learning, itβs surprisingly difficult to explain how to go about learning it.

Word on the street, from all the tour guides, is that our students have been very well prepared and have so much knowledge and understanding of Government already!! Well done everyone and a huge thanks to Mrs Chand, Mrs Stone and Miss Leonardo for getting them ready. πππ»πππ»πππ»πππ»πππ»
