Learning Journeys

Thank you to all parents who attended the Learning Journey on Tuesday. This was a fabulous opportunity for parents to see what the students have been doing and for them to demonstrate their learning. The students were proud of the work they shared and many parents were given a quick view of how to play 'Numero'. This is a popular maths game which is helping improve our mental maths skills.

 

Interschool Carnival

Last week students attended the Interschool Carnival at Edney Primary School. Those students who performed well at our carnival were selected for their fabulous sporting skills. We had a fabulous day with great competition. The day was quite warm so we were very grateful for icy poles donated by the P&C on return to school. This helped us celebrate our win as Champion school.
Congratulations to Abbey and Shae Lyne who shared the result with another girl for Runner-up Senior Champion Girl.

 

Numero

We enjoy playing Numero in our class as part of our Numeracy program. Students have to think about multiple ways to make possible answers using four operations and fractions, decimals and percentages. We made the most of the postponed carnival to teach another class how to play the game. Thank you Mrs Court for inviting us into your classroom to work with your students. We hear they are now regularly doing challenges too.

 

Wizard of Oz

Congratulations to Room 15 actors/actresses -Aena (Scarecrow), Afnan (Tin man), Kallaghn (lion) and Kya for their fabulous effort in the school production of the Wizard of OZ. We all really enjoyed the performance. It was great to see all your hard work coming together. Congratulations.

Sports Carnival

After all the preparation and postponement the carnival on Monday went off without a hitch. A big thank you to Mr Sherlock and Mrs Oliver for all their organisation. We all had a fabulous day. Congratulations to Shae Lyne as runner up Senior Champion girl. Congratulations to Purple faction for their win. The students all behaved well and we saw many occasions of good sportsmanship. I would also like to thank those students who assisted Miss Carrigg and her team with the Pre-Primary/Kindy Carnival which was held on the Wednesday.

Cross Country

We managed to dodge the showers to complete the Cross-Country carnival. Congratulations to Shae Lyne and Benjamin from Room 15, who placed in the top four.
