We had lots of fun during the Prep – 4 Activity day.

Grade Preps went to Colac West Primary School, Grade 1s went to Sacred Heart and Grade 2s went to St Mary’s.

We played lots of games and did fun activitys in different coloured groups.

2G made their very own time machine and went back in time looking at different forms of communication.

We wrote letters to our friends and family, and made our own ‘mobile phone’ out of cups and string.

It’s hard to believe that it’s Term 4 already!

This term the Grade preps will be focusing on the Seasons, and the Grade 1s and 2s will be learning all about how things change over time.

To conclude our learning about animals and habitats all the Grade 1s and 2s visited the Melbourne Zoo.

We invited our friends and family to come and share our learning about bush, polar, jungle, desert and rainforest habitats.

After spending time learning about the cold polar habitats, we turned up the heat and found out all about desert plants and animals.

We celebrated Book Week on Monday 22nd of August with a whole school dress up day and parade.

We got to dress up as our favourite Aussie book character, because the Book Week theme is ‘Australia: Story Country’

We shared our favourite books with a buddy from another classroom

We read lots of books about polar habitats and animals that live in cold conditions.

We began researching our favourite animal to create an Information Report, and created Emperor Penguins using tangrams.

We also created our own polar habitat dioramas

The Grade 1s and 2s read lots of different books about bush creatures from Australian authors like ‘Olga the Brolga’, ‘Edwina the Emu’, ‘Sam’s Bush Journey’ and ‘Wombat Goes Walkabout’.

We wrote a list of questions we’d like to find out about animals and plants that live in the bush.

We made our own bush dioramas.

This term the Grade Preps are learning all about dinosaurs, while the Grade 1s and 2s are looking at different living creatures and plants and the habitats they live in.
