Student Led Conferences

Over the past few weeks we have been reflecting on our learning throughout the year.

Our students are looking forward to sharing with you their achievements and their learning goals for the future.

Student led conferences will be held next week on Monday 18th and Tuesday 19th August. Please book a time with your child’s class teacher via Compass.

We look forward to seeing you there.

THANK YOU!

I would like to thank everyone for their support this year. How lucky I was to have such a fantastic grade. I have learnt so much and cannot wait to put these things into practice next year. Thank you to the parents for their kind words of encouragement throughout the year. Most of all to everyone in 1/2C thank you for helping me learn and for reminding me when I was forgetful (for example- with things like the Kiddy Mail- sorry Millie!).

Mahalia’s adventures with Ted!

After school I went to Victoria Gardens and I went to the pet shop with Mahalia. I saw the cats and then the bunnies. I didn’t know how many animals there were in the world! I saw the fish and I had a photo with the puppies, the parrots were too scared I accidentally went on the counter and nearly was bought! We had dinner and went to bed.

Day two: I had a ride on a reindeer, I climbed to the top of the lemon tree and bounced on the trampoline. I met some new friends, I played dress ups. I had adventures and dinner, then I went to bed.

Ted E’s adventures with Casey

On the first day when I came out of the class room, I was playing in the playground, when we were playing if was almost time to go so I got ready and we went home to Casey’s house. When we arrived home I met some new friends. Then we went shopping and I saw some some fruit, I tried to nibble it but it was covered in plastic! We then went home and had dinner, then we brushed our teeth and read a story. Soon I went to bed with Casey and had a great sleep!

Day 2
When I wake up Casey wakes up too and in the morning I get ready for school and so does Casey. Today is a school day but I’m staying at Casey’s house! Casey could stay with me today which was very lucky. Casey drew a drawing of me, then we had breakfast, then a cup of hot chocolate. After that, I climbed the Christmas tree in the shops and the shop keeper wanted me to stay so I could keep him company!

I then saw the biggest Christmas tree in the world, I tried to climb to the top but I got too tired so I stopped and got down. Then we picked up Casey’s little sister and went to Office Works.

Ted E’s adventures with Mayan

Dear 1/2C,

I had a lovely time with Mayan and learnt some new things. For example, I asked him what a dozen and Mayan told me it means twelve.

1) Mayan’s stepmum, Emily, took a photo of me and Mayan sleeping.

2) Emily took me to the state library.

3) Mayan gave me some of his pasta for dinner.

4) we read the book The Silver Chair from the Narnia series.

5) here I am on the tram going to school with Mayan we are ‘touching on’ with Mayan’s Myki card.

Welcome back!

Welcome to term 4 everyone!

What an exciting term we have in store!

Our Inquiry Unit is all about science. It’s called ‘Let’s Get Excited About Science’. We have already done some experiements and today we are becoming scientists!!! We are going to test the saltiness and oilness of different types of chips. Stay tuned for the results! 

In Reading we are learning about how our thinking changes and grows as we read new texts. We noticed that it’s a bit like a ‘ripple effect’- our thinking might start small, but grows and grows as we read and learn new things.

Speak soon everyone!
