P2 News

Gosh, we are over the halfway mark for Term 3 and are ever so busy learning, creating, writing and socialising.

During Numeracy, the students are familiarising themselves with positional language like; under, behind, near, above and manipulating numbers daily during a variety of practical and formal activities and listening to number songs.

These last few weeks we completed work on Imaginary and Informative text, learning more about fish, chickens and how wheat is milled. We even made biscuits with the milled flour.

In Science we are learning about different forces. We have looked at different ways people and animals move, then investigated ‘push and pull’ forces, playing with different toys, making them move by either pushing or pulling it.

GSS students all had fun dressing up for Book Week. P2 walked around the school to look at all the beautiful decorated doors, and a shout out to Miss Bree for decorating our door with The Lorax as our theme. We also had a visit from a local Rural fire brigade and the kids enjoyed holding the thick fire hose pipe.

Last Monday we had a farewell party for Miss Debbie in class. The students all gave her a big hug to say thank you for all she has done for them during the 1st Semester.

Only 4 more weeks of school for Term 3…we have to hurry to get all of our learning done. Wish us luck parents!!
