Term One has gone so quickly and every week I see around 380 children. They are all gorgeous and have lovely manners – well done to you! A big thank you also to the parents who consistently remind their children to their pack library bags – Amen

To begin the school year, we have spent the first four weeks unpacking the how and why of the library. We talked about Early Fiction, Older Fiction and Non Fiction. Mr Dewey is mentioned and the alphabet becomes a big part of our lessons.

Each grade has also spent time on their Units of Inquiry – we have looked at qualities needed to work in a community, qualities of friends, healthy food choices, space and what makes a great leader.

The last two weeks of Term 1 have been dealing with the how and why of ANZAC day. The kids love looking at the huge collection of books we have and ask amazing questions.
