Week 3 Term 3 Reminders

Kaya,

Welcome to the season of Djilba, the season of conception. This is when the days start to move from cold to cool and less wet weather, fingers crossed we start to see some sun again. I hope you've had a great day! 


Proud Teacher Moment...

Words can not express how proud we were of all the students yesterday at the Confirmation Mass. Whilst I know it was early and went for longer than expected, you all showed incredible spirit and support for one another by being present. I can not believe how many comments and remarks I have had celebrating the maturity, reverence and commitment the children made to this sacrament. Every part was performed perfectly, I hope it is something they cherish for years to come. So many students commented on how impressed their parents were with their artwork and biographies, what a delight to hear them talk about it being all worth it.

Imogen King - 21st August

WEEK 3 REMINDERS

HUMAN DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOP
On Friday 6th August the students will participate in Human Development talks that will be presented by The Centre for Life, Marriage and Family. They will cover an introductory program on growth and development with the Year 6 students via zoom. 

A permission slip went home today that must be completed and returned for your child to participate. Please ensure this is returned by Thursday, otherwise we will assume your child is not participating and will be sent to another classroom.

SEESAW APP
The students have taken home a letter last week with your unique login for the Seesaw App. This unique login is for the parents. Students are not to use this login for their students as theirs is a separate class login that they will connect with from school. You can use this access on multiple platforms and both parents can sign in using different devices. This platform will be used to showcase you the students hard work over the upcoming semester in place of writing English and Numeracy comments in the final reports, in order to make the learning and progress of your student more visible to you on a regular basis. If you have any further questions regarding this please refer back to the email sent earlier in the term by admin. 

The students will have 2 posts for you to review on the Seesaw App by the end of this week, so please make sure to login on the weekend to check them out. Let me know if you have any questions. 


UPCOMING EVENTS

1. Inter-school Cross Country - Thursday 5th of August
2. Human Development Workshop - Friday 6th of August 


Homework - (Due Friday 6th August) 

Please ensure all students are completing their homework and getting you to check it with a signature nightly and then signing the learning grid and homework diary on a Thursday afternoon before it is returned. 

Home Learning Grid includes:
1. Reading x 20 minutes every night - students to write up the pages that they read that night and the parent to sign every night. 
2. Spelling Activities - spelling grid to be completed in homework book. 
3. Mathematics - Two Mathletics tasks to be completed as well as a worksheet that will revise a topic from the previous term. 
4. Three well-being tasks from learning grid.
5. Any unfinished class tasks. 


Have a brilliant week, let's hope we see a little sunshine at some point. Looking forward to getting back into our normal learning practice and routine now that Confirmation is behind us.

Happy Holidays!

Good morning, We hope you are enjoying the beautiful start to the holidays. Whilst our end to the term was quite intense, we hope that the weeks of home schooling weren't too stressful on you all. I was so proud at how quickly the students adapted to the new situation and then produced incredible pieces of work.  I am currently working through all the marking: Narratives, Basil Presentations and Maths tests but from what I've seen so far there are some very pleasing results. All Maths tests completed and uploaded have been marked and your child's results can be found where they saved their test in OneNote. The results for the other two tasks will be saved in OneNote under 'Assessment Results' in the coming week for your child to view. Today you will receive an email with your child's Interim Report attached. Keep an eye out for this! With both Ali and I being at home working and educating our own children, we truly appreciate the amount of time and

Good Evening All, It is with great sadness I say that this will be my final blog post for the year. I can not describe how incredibly proud of students and the leaders this group has become. They have worked hard, played hard and lead hard...what more could I have asked for! Thank you for the amazing support and care you have shown me throughout the year. The constant check-ins, the quick response to my endless requests and willingness to help in anyway has been both noted and appreciated throughout the year. Many thanks to our parent reps for making my job easy and communicating anything that needed to be done, I am so grateful. Whilst I don't think I deserve it, I am touched to have received a very generous voucher to Blue Manna from the class and a number of thoughtful gifts from other families. I am a softie when it comes to beautiful handwritten messages and it's the heartfelt cards that are playing on my emotional heartstrings, making me a blubbering mess (I don't thi

Hello from Imogen & Tilly - Week 5 Term 2

Kaya, This blog has been expertly created by Imogen King and Tilly Hall, and I am sure you will agree that they have done a wonderful job.  Hope you all had a nice refreshing weekend with your friends and family! As the weather begins to get colder, we are reaching the end of Djeran and moving towards the wintery season of Makuru.  Good news...you’ll be starting to see less of the different types of snails ( probably eating your veggies in your garden!😂 ) and Shelducks paddling in lakes and pools of water... Interesting Fact!! If a Shelduck has a white ring around its eye, it’s a female (like the one below). CLASS FUN FACT: Did you know Sophie had a guinea pig with one ear because her chook pecked it off!!! ⭐⭐ Star Citizen Award ⭐⭐ Well done to Lexi Lepidi for receiving our 6R Star Citizen for Appreciation for Term 2. What an asset to the classroom she's become! We are always delighted by the maturity shesuses to show appreciation to those around her. You are consistently the fi
