The first half of this term has flown by with many shorter weeks due to ANZAC Day, Gympie Show Holiday and Labour Day. We have enjoyed 2 excursions, one to the Careers Expo which was a great opportunity for the students to communicate with a lot of different people in our community. The second excursion was a quick visit to the Gympie Show which fit in nicely with our curriculum of movement in Science, addition in Maths and persuading in English. Cross Country came and went… there are many running superstars in our class that’s for sure!! Recently, the students have been exploring, extending and strengthening their abilities with counting strategies and writing bigger and better sentences with more detail. The focussed learning, improvement of spelling using our new sound cards and peer learning has been awesome to observe!

The second half of the term will include us consolidating all of our learning and new skills, finishing off assessments from our key learning areas and teachers will be beginning the reporting period. Reading will also be a huge priority for us. We have Sports Day, Photo Day and PBL Rewards Day to look forward to. Year 10 vaccinations are also coming up. Have a fantastic remainder of term! ?
