EOTC WEEK

Here are a selection of photos from EOTC week. An amazing time was had by all.
A huge "thank you" goes out to all the parents who gave up their time to help out. We couldn't have done it without you and the students loved having parents and caregivers come to join in the fun and share their triumphs.

FIRST AID TRAINING

Today Room 15 was very lucky to have Louise from the Red Cross come to class to teach us about First Aid. We learned how to help people with burns, cuts and broken bones, what to do if someone is unconscious or chocking and how to put a bandage and sling on correctly.

Wow, this term is flying by!

Sorry that the blog has fallen a little behind, it's been one very busy term!

We've been up to lots of exciting things already this term and we still have lots to look forward to.

Swimming, the Triathlon, an Amazing Race, a Fun Day at Days Bay, the Christmas concert and much more are still to come.

Below are a few photos from ice skating in week 1 and practicing for athletics day.


Warming up and stretching.


Great jump Henry B!
Awesome Jasmine!
Great throw Mia!


Ice skating was LOADS of fun!

It took a while to get our confidence up but after a while some of us were even attempting a few tricks picked up from Dancing on Ice.

With all the work we put into our Wearable Art creations and performances last term we ran out of time to complete our inquiry on Festivals and Celebrations.

The beginning of the term sees us jumping right into the inquiry process where will be investigating this big idea:



In Literacy we will be focusing on persuasive writing this term. Today we held a very spirited debate in the classroom on the following statement. Some very strong opinions were eloquently expressed!
