Talk for Writing

We have started our new Talk for Writing story – Alice in Wonderland. The students came into a classroom that had been transformed into a wonderful tea party. It really helped set the scene and the mood that it was also pyjama day. The kids were intrigued with the fairy lights, the stuffed animal creatures that came to tea and of course the plates of food! Harrison particularly enjoyed the sweet treats, with Shia choosing a lollipop and Jake B loving the chocolate cupcakes. Layla and Marko loved picking at the popcorn while Levi, Evie and Jake O tried a little bit of everything. It was a fun morning with lots of chatter about what was to come and why our room looked so different.

Gardening

One of the events coming up for the Year 6s is Market Day at Belridge Secondary ESC. This is a day where local schools come together with items and goods that they have made and sell them in a market stall environment. All proceeds go back to support our Year 6 final graduation events. This happens in Term 4 but the planning and preparation starts early in order to get everything ready. Our class have been planting seeds and seedlings, watering and checking on them regularly and are hoping to get enough fruit and vegetables to make a selection of jams, sauces and pickles to sell. I am sure there will be a lot of taste-testing along the way too, to make sure the flavours are just right.

Assembly

We would love to see as many people as possible at the assembly on Tuesday 27 June. Please remind your children to dress up in their most imaginative 90's themed outfits.
