Postcard of the day!

Congratulations to Amity for marvellous maths work today! Amity was a true Stickability Stan really grappling with problem solving until she got the right answer. Super proud of you!

How dull would it be without diversity?

In Class 4 today we had a beautiful day thinking about the word Diversity. Here are some of the wonderful quotes from today!

The children made their words come to life as they drew their thoughts together.

“We all have different skin colour, hair, teeth.”

“Our bodies are all different shapes and sizes and that is ok.”

“Some children have a mummy and some have a daddy.”

“Some one might have a little brother and someone a sister. “

“Some people like things and some people like other things.”

“Diversity is everyone is different. It’s boring the same. “

The children noticed and praised what they could see and really appreciated difference. I am so proud of them! what a beautiful Crew!

Learning Legends of the Week!

Congratulations to Amity and Martha for being our postcard winners of the week. You have both been wonderful role models to your friends by being super scientists digging deeper into our expeditionary learning. You shared wonderful ideas about floating and sinking and also shared home learning with your crew. Well done girls!
