Week 2 Term 2

We hope you enjoyed the first week back to school!  Thankfully it was a short one to ease us back into our Term of learning.  We loved seeing how the children at home were going and have enjoyed seeing some of the children’s faces back at school last week!  

We thank you for your ongoing support for those of you who are online learning from home.

Thank you also to all those parents who have advised the school on whether their child will be attending in Week 2. Despite the larger group of students returning to school this week, we will remain with teaching the same content for home and school to cater for those at home.

CHILDREN RETURNING TO SHOOL
If you child is returning, please ensure that they bring their charged laptop and a pair of headphones is ESSENTIAL.
It would be a good idea to stagger the books being returned so this is a breakdown of the books they will need each day! 

MONDAY  (will be the heaviest!)
Pencil cases
Spelling exercise book
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Book bag (All contents including the spelling sheets)
Reading exercise book
Draft Writing exercise book

Health Exercise book
Visual Arts scrap book

WEDNESDAY
All of the above 

THURSDAY
MJR Book
Mr Torrese’s Math book

FRIDAY
Assessment book


At the moment there is no set homework, however if any work is not completed at home or school on any given day then it automatically becomes homework and is due back the next day.

HOME LEARNING  - Click to access the Week 2 Learning Schedule

The Home Learning Programme is that same structure as last week.  Please be assured the children at school are learning the same as the children at home, so no one is disadvantaged in any way.  However, rather than have input from us, they may required some input from you, particularly in their math sessions.

If your child does not have a particular learning area exercise book at home, please have them gather all of their sheets into a folder and we will glue into the correct book when they return to school. 

No one will have their H.A.S.S. book at home as these are stored in the library with Mrs Meyer and were overlooked when we gathered up belongings to send home last term.  So, as above, keep all of the H.A.S.S. work in a folder so it will be able to be glued in when your child returns to their regular lessons with Mrs Meyer in the library.

Each morning the student's learning from home are encouraged to check in via a Teams meeting at 9:00a.m. each morning.  Please remind them of “Meeting Etiquette” where they are to join the meeting with their camera and microphone switched off. When it is their turn to talk, they will be able to “switch on!”



Our weekly Parent Teams Session is scheduled on Monday afternoon at 1.30pm where you can ask any questions about the week’s tasks. 

There are also several other Teams meetings scheduled throughout the week. Please refer to the Week 2 programme for these and make note of when your child is required to join a meeting.

 Don't forget about the Live Maths Session with Mr T on Thursday at 11am and the Live Speaking Presentations on Friday  at 9:30am - everyone is expected to attend please!

Thank you all for your ongoing support and we hope your home situations are happy and healthy!

Kathy and Adrian

Term 4, Week 8

Week 8, Term 4 Wow, can you believe we are here already? The children are doing such an incredible job of finishing off some great work from the term, creating beautiful Christmas pieces for our residents at the retirement village and getting their “Creative” on with their portraits in Art. Just a few reminders for the last couple of weeks. Advent We are currently celebrating and learning about the period of Advent. Advent is a period of spiritual preparation in which many Christians make themselves ready for the coming, or birth of the Lord, Jesus Christ. Celebrating Advent typically involves a season of prayer, fasting, and repentance, followed by anticipation, hope, and joy. We celebrate Advent not only by thanking God for Christ's first coming to Earth as a baby, but also for his presence among us today through the Holy Spirit, and in preparation and anticipation of his final coming at the end of the age. The children have been preparing an Advent Calendar of Random

Term 4 Week 7

  The following recount was written collaboratively by Paige, Georgia, Flynn,  Tieg, Justin, Jasper, Jeremy, Joe, Mahley and Noah. It is Part One of our Cape Naturaliste Experience!!   On Monday the 16 th of November we went to the historical Cape Naturalise National Park.  We travelled by bus and it took 11 minutes to get to this magnificent location!       First of all, we met Josh Whiteland, who is a Wardandi Custodian of the local region.  Wardandi means “forest people by the sea.” He calls the land "country".  Aboriginal people see “country” as being like a mother.  It gives to them what they need and protects them.  Respect of country is the backbone of Noongar people. Josh learned all of his knowledge from Aboriginal elders in our region.  He encouraged us to make a “connection to country” where we can become “cultural custodians” thus developing our own identity and sense of belonging to the place in which we live.   Josh led us on a brilliant bushwalk (approx

I honestly feel so blessed to have worked with your children this term. They are a brilliant bunch of souls who are going to soar in Grade Six.  Just a couple of reminders for this week.  Christmas Concert : As mentioned previously, the Christmas Concert is taking place this Tuesday 7th December. It commences at 6pm, so please  ensure that your child comes to class by 5.40pm.  As a class we will walk down together and into our places, while you can find a nice spot on the hill to settle back and enjoy the show. St Vinnie's Donations: A reminder that we are collecting Christmas food and decorative items...if you can please have them in  by Wednesday , we would be very appreciative! Many families have contributed, however if you haven't as yet it is a great yet simple way to give back during the festive season. Hel
