This Tuesday we had the great joy of celebrating our learning expo! It was a wonderful to not only reflect on the main narratives of 2020 by also to create learning experiences that we could share with our community that reflect elements of how we enact our schools philosophy. “It was fun reading out my […]

Over the last few weeks, the 3/4’s have had a large focus on mathematical concepts. Each day students have been collaborating in groups to explore, learn, master and communicate concepts, allowing these new skills to be applied through our inquiry and other real-life concepts. With a focus on mathematical language, Aurelie, Chris and Hugo B.

This week we continued our exploration of perspectives as we explored provocations from the artists in residence even further.

After Kat shared this project with her neighbourhood during a Webex, many other students wanted to

This week we continued to explore change and how places change over time. These changes can be physical (human-made or natural), cultural (language, music and art), or social (social norms and values). Students from 3/4 reflected on how places are connected through the landscape and common features and how these impact the identity of people

As we live through a time of huge change. Recognising how one individual can make such big changes and have such a lasting impact has really made the learning meaningful; motivating us to learn more about ourselves as potential change-makers.  This week we kicked off remote learning 2.0.  While this does present some challenges, our

Returning to school after months apart, the 3/4s have been focused on sharing our individual experiences of remote learning. One of the ways we’ve done this connected with our excursion to the immigration museum and Sandridge Bridge in Term 1, where we explored some of the countries that have contributed to Australian multiculturalism. We noticed
