Year 1 picture book party
Over the last few weeks, each year 1 class has come to the library for a picture book party.
The children enjoyed the story 'Feathers for Phoebe'.
After the story, the children danced the chicken dance and then made their own feather headband.
No party would be complete without some cake, so each child received a cupcake.
It was great that so many parents could join the fun!

Our little Kindergarten scientists have been investigating how different materials are used for different purposes and how some materials are more durable than others. To put their learning into action, students took on the challenge of building homes for the Three Little Pigs using a variety of materials. They explored, tested, and compared which materials made the strongest and most durable houses. It was wonderful to see their creativity, problem-solving skills, and scientific thinking as they worked together to design and build their houses. Well done, Kindergarten scientists! ππ β¨

ππͺ Sound Investigation in Year 2! πͺπ In Year 2, students have been investigating how different materials and actions can affect the volume and pitch of sound. Using bottles brought from home, students added rice and a variety of pasta to design and create their very own musical instruments. Through hands-on exploration, students discovered that high-pitched sounds are created by fast vibrations and higher frequencies, while low-pitched sounds are produced by slower vibrations and lower frequencies. There was so much excitement, curiosity, and music-making as our young scientists explored sound in action! πΆπ΅π€©

𦴠Year 4 have been busy exploring the amazing human body! This week, our young scientists learned all about bones and the important jobs they do. From protecting our organs to helping us move, we discovered how our skeleton keeps us strong and supported. The students enjoyed identifying different bones, learning their names, and finding out fun facts about the human body. There were lots of curious questions and enthusiastic discussions along the way!
