WE WENT TO THE SHOW! The class had a fantastic time, our favourite things to see were the birds, there were some really blue birds on display, the animal nursery, the art/craft /cooking displays in the pavilion and the chickens. We saw some absolutely weird and wonderful chooks and Isaac’s family are lucky he did not manage to smuggle one out to take home, he really wanted to as they were his favourite. Beau and Miles loved the cake decorating the most, even slightly more than the Lego display which Layton thought was the best. When we got back to school they practised their persuasive writing for English and wrote about what was the best and gave reasons why. Students took photos themselves at the show to go along with our work. They then proudly took their work to show Sarah who was very impressed and gave them all stickers.

We are working hard at assessments and creating some fantastic work to represent our learning in Semester 1 and are very proud of the skills we are developing. We understand the need to keep your students home if they are unwell and encourage this as absolutely necessary especially as it is easy to pass on illnesses to each other in classroom. However, over the next few weeks while we are trying to finish assessments, unexplained absences make it hard to complete assessments so if your student could attend as much as they are able that would be appreciated.
