Week 5

We have been at school for 5 weeks now. The Preps are settling in so well and getting used to the school routines. You are AMAZING!

A few photos from our Literacy rotations this week. We are very lucky to have fantastic parent helpers who started coming in this week to help with the two hour Literacy block. We have been working hard on alphabet puzzles, matching up capital letters and lower case letters, alphabet activities on the computer, writing activities and reading.

In Religion over the last few weeks we have been learning about Jesus. We have been reading stories from the New Testament about Jesus' life. We have read 'An angel tells Mary she is going to have a baby', 'Jesus is born', 'An angry King', 'Jesus is lost' and 'John baptizes Jesus'. This week we also started whole school meditation. This takes place in our classroom straight after lunch on a Monday and a Friday.

 On Friday afternoon the whole school went outside and cleaned up our school grounds for 'Clean up Australia Day'. The children all brought in gloves to wear. They did a great job! Luckily there wasn't too much rubbish around. We try hard to keep our school clean and tidy!
