Week 10

It's hard to believe this is the last week of term and half a school year has gone by. The children had a great day at the athletics carnival and they all need to be congratulated on their positive attitudes throughout all events. It was lovely to see all their smiling faces all day. Thanks to the parents that supported and helped out.

On Tuesday we have another busy day. The children are doing a dance fever performance at 9.30 in the undercover shed and parents are invited to come along and watch. We are going on our excursion to Greenbank RSL at 10.30. The children will be given the opportunity to eat lunch lunch before we leave, they will be given a drink and chip snack there and then they will have afternoon tea at the usual time upon our return.

As a follow up to the excursion, the children will discuss what they saw and learnt and they will complete a worksheet. They will also plan and design their 'Soldier's suitcase'. We decided to postpone doing this activity until after their excursion as it will be more relevant after they have had the opportunity to see real artefacts and hear stories from returned soldiers. The children will complete their suitcases on Wednesday. This week we will also finish our science unit so their will be lots of mixing of different ingredients!

The children are looking forward to finishing up the term with the movie 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid'. Don't forget we need the permission note signed as it is PG.

We hope you have a good week and an even better holiday. Fingers crossed we have more of these beautiful clear skies for the coming two weeks! Safe travels for any families driving or flying.
