What we are getting up to

In year one we are looking forward to a busy and challenging semester. Not only are we covering the core learning areas of Reading, Writing and Mathematics, we are also learning to enquire about where we belong, how we relate to each other and about respecting our individual and other peoples cultures and heritages.

We have begun this semester training for cross country, exploring poetry and public speaking and taking up the reading challenge set by Mrs. O’Brien.

We are deepening our love of the arts by exploring how we can interpret our surroundings with the skills and knowledge we have learnt in Semester 1 and from what we can learn from other artists.
