PRC Completed!

These children have all completed the Premiers' Reading Challenge.
The last date to enter books is September 12 and we are hoping all 1B will meet the challenge.

Well done Aidan!

Our Future Jobs!

House Athletics Day

Our House Sports Day was held at Springfield Park. (A special thank you to the Mums who walked us down!)

Bradman House was the winner on the day and  the house captains received a cup at assembly on Monday.

It was the first time the Junior School had been involved in the house athletics.

Co operative Learning in 1B

On Monday, the staff had a full day training day on the Kagan model for co operative learning. It's much more than working in groups! In our classroom we have made a few changes to the way we do things. The children are learning a whole new way of saying "WELL DONE!". Ask them about the brain kiss, the firecracker or perhaps the sparkles!
The children now have a home group table at which they will sit for the next 3 weeks. The person next to them is their shoulder partner, the person opposite, their face partner.
Our spelling session this morning was a chance to trial some of the structures promoted by the Kagan model.

A Very Unusual Pet!
