Special Visitors Today

Today we had Sue and Jackie visit us in Cottage. They brought calico bags for us to decorate with fabric paint. Next week the bags will be finished by Jackie and Sue for everyone to take home. A big thank-you to these amazing grandparents for organising this. The children thought carefully about what they wanted to paint and soon their bags were filled with colourful pictures. A perfect activity for a very wet Wednesday.

 

Lemonade Stand

Mathematics Comes to Life

Students are especially motivated by Mathematics that connects with the world around them. This term, Year 3 and 4 have been exploring the skills involved in running a lemonade stand. This has been a fun way to explore a range of ideas related to measurement, number sense and money.

To make their learning even more exciting, they will be running their own drink stall next Monday, 26 November at recess.

Students will be able to purchase lemonade, raspberry fizz or banana smoothie, made by the students, for $1.50.

We hope many of our students will support this authentic learning project by purchasing a cup from one of the stalls.

Sydney Wildlife Services Visit

Today Wildlife Officer Lynleigh came to visit Cottage. The children met Harley the Bearded Dragon, Dot the Spotted Python, Barlo the Giant Python and Tyson the Blue Tongue Lizard. The children learned about how to care for our environment to keep our wildlife safe and how to keep ourselves safe in the bush by leaving the animals alone and remembering to look but never touch.
