Year 4 - Reading in the Peace Garden!
This week, our Year 4 students enjoyed a peaceful and relaxing reading session in the beautiful Peace Garden. With the sun shining down and the gentle breeze rustling the leaves, the garden provided the perfect backdrop for diving into their favorite books. Students settled on benches and picnic blankets, completely absorbed in their stories, whether it was an exciting adventure or a thought-provoking mystery. The tranquil setting not only made reading even more enjoyable but also encouraged mindfulness and a deep connection with nature. It was a wonderful opportunity for students to unwind, recharge, and discover new worlds through the pages of a book.
Year 3 - Egyptian scrolls!
This week, our Year 3 students took a creative journey back in time as they crafted their very own ancient Egyptian scrolls! With the classroom transformed into a mini archaeological workshop, students carefully created their scrolls using papyrus-like paper, decorating them with hieroglyphics and symbols that tell stories from the past. They learned about the significance of these scrolls in ancient Egyptian culture and how they were used to document history, mythology, and important events. The students loved channeling their inner historians and artists as they brought a piece of ancient history to life, gaining hands-on experience in the fascinating world of ancient Egypt!
Year 2 - Minibeast Hunt!
This week, our Year 2 students embarked on an exciting minibeast hunt in the playground! Armed with magnifying glasses and a sense of adventure, they explored every nook and cranny, discovering a variety of fascinating insects and critters. From ladybugs to worms, the students were thrilled to observe the tiny creatures in their natural habitats and learn about their important roles in the ecosystem. It was a fantastic hands-on learning experience, sparking curiosity and a deeper appreciation for the natural world around us. We’re proud of the students for their enthusiasm and teamwork as they worked together to uncover the wonders of the mini-beast world!
Scholastic Book Fair!
The Scholastic Book Fair was a huge hit this week, filling the school with excitement and the rustle of turning pages! Students loved browsing the colorful displays, discovering new stories, and picking out books that sparked their imaginations. From gripping graphic novels to laugh-out-loud chapter books, there was something for everyone. The energy in the room was contagious—smiles, recommendations, and eager readers everywhere. It wasn’t just about buying books; it was about the joy of reading and sharing stories with friends.
