WELCOME TO OUR GRADE ONE BLOG

This term the students have been engaging in a variety of enriched learning experiences that have supported them in understanding ways they can look after our planet. After looking at the impact pollution is having on our planet, the students decided that they wanted to make a change. Through a persuasive writing piece, the students presented their ideas and understandings around pollution and climate change and shared ways that we as a community can make a change. The students have been working hard this week to create a variety of posters for our school community. These posters are aimed at stopping pollution and encouraging others to clean up their rubbish and not pick the plants

Here are some photos of the AMAZING posters that the students made:

Yesterday the Grade One’s had a fun filled day at Dream City. During our time at Dream City the students participated in a wide range of exciting activities. They learnt about different occupations , and how robotics, electronics and Virtual Reality (VR) works.

There were many ‘firsts’ experienced . Of course it was their first excursion, but for some of them it was their first time on a bus !

Thank you to all our wonderful parent volunteers! It was unfortunate that we could not have you all come along with us 🙂

Today the students enjoyed participating in our Book Week dress up day. It was amazing to see so many Grade One students dress up. Reading is such an enriching part of our Grade One curriculum and it is so important that children are exposed to a variety of stories and literacy based activities. Here are some photos of our amazing costumes:
