It feels like this year has raced by and this term went even faster. P1 has been working hard on assessment tasks and end of the year business, so we have still been very busy but have started to slow down and work on Christmas activites. We have also fit in lots of exciting activities like the swimming carnival, bowling and the Colour Fun Run. A big congratulations to the students in the class who raised enough money to earn prizes. New friends from Gympie State High School have also visited several times and come to help with lots of activites like shared reading, the swimming carnival and bowling.

We are excited to finally be engaging with some fun Christmas crafts, which we are all really excited about. Students picked the ones they wanted to try off the smart screen and we have loved making some sock snowmen, wooden decorations, beaded wreaths and plenty of felt art, some students even wanted to try sewing.

We are moving towards packing up the class room so expect workbooks and extra stationary from this year to start arriving home. We will send it slowly over a few days so their bags aren’t too heavy on one afternoon. We have had a great year and hope everyone has a fantastic Christmas.
