Starting back at school this term, creativity was flowing as we continued to paint our canvas artworks for the Mary Velly Art Festival – each piece showcasing the students’ unique ideas and talents. All students who participated received a certificate. Some other highlights so far have been engaging in our new curriculum topics, soccer with Coach Tim on Wednesdays and visiting the Community Expo. At the Community Expo S2 students enjoyed engaging with community members and collecting gift bags that were on offer.

This semester students will have Miss Deb and Miss Amanda on Tuesday mornings for Digital Technology and HASS. We will be learning about space and Earth in Science and have so far enjoyed exploring the solar system and making cookie planets, investigating the difference in sizes between each planet. We will continue building our skills while exploring poetry in English, and have already made a strong start on our Maths with students working hard on partitioning numbers and exploring addition and subtraction strategies.

It's been a busy and exciting start, and we're looking forward to more hands-on learning in the weeks ahead!
