Yes, we have only 3 days left of school this term! Everybody has worked really hard and we have so much to show for it. This week we are working hard to finish our booklets from our BIG QUESTION and there are still heaps of Inquiry Card activities to work on. Next term we will be having our Celebration on the first Friday, so parents check your diaries and students, plan which Australian Animal you will be dressing up as. 🙂
Tomorrow we will be having our last SPELLING TEST. On Friday remember it is a gold coin donation FREE DRESS DAY and you can bring in GAMES like Twister, Monopoly etc.
You will notice some interesting things have been made by Jade and Leilani (coming soon) and maybe next term more people will be able to publish their writing on Dolphinkids!
A huge THANK YOU to all the Mums and Dads who have helped with reading this term. It’s a really important service and every child is benefitting, so thank you for giving up your time and energy. Have a happy and safe holiday everybody!

On Friday our room was transformed into a shopping mall. Students set up their shops ready for business at the start of the day. We had everything from cars to robots, clever crafts to Beanie Kids, books to bangles, bags and soft toys on sale. Business was brisk and students found out that it’s important to be able to use maths in real life to make sure to pay with the right coins and receive the correct change. Enterprising retailers slashed their prices to half price and “buy one – get one free” as the final minutes of trading ticked by. Some students set up raffles and were amazed by the money they raised. But most of all – we all had SO MUCH FUN using our classroom money in real life maths!!
I was just so impressed with all of you on Friday – you went to a lot of trouble preparing for our shop and there was such a spirit of fun and co-operation in the room. Well done, everybody!!
🙂 Mrs Veary

I thought some of you might enjoy this little game. You need to draw lines using the computer to true or false. How well do you know your facts about reptiles, mammals etcetera?
