And here we are again, at the end of another term and also end of the first semester. We have had a busy term with exciting classroom as well as school community activities. Throughout the term the students have had coach Tim who helped them to throw, jump and push, all to be ready for our Athletics Carnival we had last Friday. The students had fun and especially we want to commend Oliver who participated in all the activities and the race events. Well done Ollie!! The Cross Country event was also a great success, and the good weather contributed to a successful day. The students also enjoyed the Questacon Circus last Wednesday, exploring the world of science. On Monday, our last week of term we had Evolution Archery at school for our PBL Rewards Day. Goodness me, what a lot of fun we had.

We have also welcomed a new student to our school and class, Sasha. She is getting used to GSS and settling in well.

Amongst all the activities we continued learning: - Shared Reading time brought lots of smiles when reading books with humour, and all participated in reading, writing, sticking, cutting, matching and sharing activities.

Hope you all have a wonderful winter holiday, rest well, and we are looking forward to see all the happy faces back in Term 3.
