'Have you ever?' Poems

Last week we wrote some wonderful poetry in Room 5. Following the structure of an exemplar, we created our own 'HAVE YOU EVER?' poems to describe an 'EXTREME' event we have experienced in our lives. Take a read!

Working Bee!

Yesterday, some of our senior students set to work doing a whole list of jobs around our school. It is so important for the students to be involved in creating and maintaining the environment that we all enjoy. We helped by spreading wood chip over the paths, gardening, clearing the stones from a new garden and cleaning up our new garden area. We enjoyed working together and had quite a few laughs along the way and we are certainly pleased with how the place is looking!

We even gave our class garden a new makeover. It looks beautiful now and we are very lucky to have celery and lettuces growing so we can soon enjoy eating them!

Senior Swimming Sports!

We all had a wonderful time on Tuesday morning, competing and swimming in our annual senior swimming sports. Everyone competed in a range of races allowing them to show off their skills and what they have been learning in swimming over the past 6 weeks.

Great effort kids, you all did an amazing job!
Well done to all those students who were champions of their year groups, and a special congratulations to Rebekah and Annabel from our class who are the senior girl and junior girl champions!

Cyber Safety with Constable Sarah

Yesterday we had a very informative visit from Constable Sarah. She refreshed our memories about how important it is to be cyber safe and smart, and provided us with a very useful 'THINK' strategy to ensure we are being safe online.

Thank you so much, Constable Sarah, for your useful tips and for reminding us of what is important when using the internet, apps and programmes.

Student Camp Highlights

As part of the students camp follow up tasks, they created pic collages of some of their highlights. It was so great to see the students all enjoy different aspects of camp and for different reasons. Great work Room 5! They look awesome!

Fantastic Friday!

Friday was full of fun!
We enjoyed some competitive, fun games in the pool, including flippa ball and races. Miss Fleet got splashed and soaked more than once!

Later in the day, the girls from Room 5 and 6 enjoyed some coaching and tips from Jess at Central Football. This was really fun and she certainly provided some challenges for us to complete!

To finish off a wonderful day, we went for a buddy swim! It was so cool to spend time with our little buddies, playing games and helping them with some of their skills. Thanks for having us Room 1!

IMPORTANT NEWS!

Getting to know you camp!

We really had the most wonderful few days at school for our 'Getting to know you' camp.

Over these days we did some work around our strengths and weaknesses which will help us set our goals, we did loads of swimming, we participated in team building and collaborating activities, we had an awesome morning at the lido, and completed a pretty awesome piece of art and of course had a whole lot of fun!

Check out the footage of our enjoyable few days!

Thanks to Miss Fleet for organising this camp, and to all our drivers, and parents/teachers who stayed over night! We sure do appreciate it!
