This term, during our Religious Education lessons, Stage 3 have been learning about various faith communities in our local area.
Using Google maps, students were encouraged to explore various Christian churches around our local community.
As part of our inquiry process, students have been engaged in many learning activities that will help them answer our driving question - What makes a Church and how does it strive for Christian unity?
Students researched various Christian churches and participated in a ‘Jigsaw’ activity where they became ‘experts’ on a particular Chrisitian church. Students worked in collaborative learning groups where they discussed similarities and differences between the worship and ministries of the Catholic, Anglican and Uniting Churches.
Stage 3 has also been introduced into the world of music and dance. Students have been learning to play and move to a range of music, individually and in groups, demonstrating and identifying their knowledge of musical concepts.
Students have been shown different styles of music and asked to respond how they would react to each style of song. Stage have also enjoyed working together in their groups creating a song using GarageBand to build their understanding of music and dance.

Year 1 have been working really hard this year participating in our Kitchen Garden Program!! Not only do the students learn all about gardening by taking care of ‘Blueys Patch’ growing vegetables, but they also then learn about cooking by using items they’ve grown. Keep up the good work Year1! 💛👩🌾💧🧑🏾🌾🪴🧑🌾

Kindy have been working so hard out the back of their classrooms creating their very own ‘yarning circle’! They are almost ready to put down the weed mat. I can’t wait to see it finished. They certainly love their gardening in Kindergarten!!! 💛🪴🧑🌾👩🌾💛🪴👩🌾🧑🏾🌾

I enjoyed sitting with Year 6 yesterday in prayer to reflect on their time at St Bernadette’s and what legacy they will leave at the end of the year. We then spent time creating an image of how they want to be remembered. This image will then become a part of the 2026 prayer cloth that will be gifted to each learning space in the school. A beautiful tradition that keeps memories and legacies alive. 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛

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, it’s surprisingly difficult to explain how to go about learning it.

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. 💛📚💛📚💛📚💛📚💛📚
