Happy Holidays to you all!

2018 has been a wonderful year and as I begin to reflect, I can't believe how quickly it has gone!

Thank you for sharing your children with me and allowing me to be a part of their learning journey.

Enjoy a safe and relaxing holiday and see you all in the New Year!

Merry Christmas from the Karearea class!

 

Yo Ho, Yo Ho.......a Pirate's life is for me!

Today we were learning the 'ar' sound in Phonics.  

We found the sound in our Poem and then we became pirates.  

Have a look at the fun we had!

Windmills!

In Science we have been learning to recognise that 'Pushes and Pulls' are classified as Forces.  

The weather played right into our hands (literally) by providing an extremely windy day - the perfect opportunity to investigate how wind works as a Force.

Have a look at our lovely fun with windmills!

DROP, COVER, HOLD!

Today, Thursday 18th of October at 9.30am we participated in the New Zealand Shake Out.

The purpose of the Shake Out is to ensure that our children know what to do if there is an Earthquake.

We learned to DROP, COVER and HOLD!

We talked about finding the safest places to do this when we are outside, or if there are no tables to shelter under inside.  

We are going to ask our families to help us come up with a plan at home so that we know what to do, wherever we are!

Have a look at us - shaking-out!

Flower Power!

Spring has sprung!

Wow!  What creative students we have here at Wentworth Primary School.

To finish off a fantastic Term 3, the Years 1 - 4 immersed themselves into an exciting Tech Challenge.  

In teams they were to create a flower inspired costume using only paper, sellotape and string.  The models then had to walk around two courts to demonstrate the robust and sturdy nature of the costumes, and to show off their exquisite aesthetic designs!

Have a look at the amazing creations designed by our youngest students!

Enjoy your holiday break!
