Yoga - A journey through India

Emma took us on  a journey to India. We learnt about the animals and foods of India. We learnt about the weather, clothes, animals and food. We also celebrated and learnt about Diwali. We made rangoli patterns, milk sweets and lanterns.

Week 2 - Mrs Wishy-washy, car races and math games

Mrs Wishy-washy as a big focus for our children this week as they drew pictures and told stories about her and the animals on the farm. Lots of great creative writing came out of it.

With Miss Ravindran and Mrs McIntrye both away towards the end of the week, we thought the car rally wasn't going to happen...and then the rain set in on Friday! Mr McFunn came to the rescue and we made our very own ramp for the cars to roll down. This activity was helping children to make sense of the mathematic principle of probability...who was going to win?

We played maths games to help us build our number knowledge too.

Super week back at school!

 We have had a "SUPER' start to Term 4.

We have built lairs, planned traps to catch the bad guys, weaved our way through lasers to save little furries, hid our identies with masks, battled slime, phoned superheros and so much more.

We also learnt that not all heros wear capes like doctors, nurses, teaches, mums or dads. Oh and flash too!

Thank you to the families who came to watch our incredible super kids. I apologies for our technical difficulties but didn't the children do great!!!

Here is our all about us presentation.
