In Creative Arts lessons this term Kindergarten and Year 1 are learning about Drama and storytelling. Years 2-6 are exploring the Makey-Makey.
The Makey-Makey is an electronic invention kit for all ages! The Makey Makey allows you to take everyday objects and combine them with the internet. Using the alligator clips attached to any conductive material you can control the keyboard of your computer, such as the space bar, arrow keys and left click of the mouse. It allows all students to be creative, inventive, and imaginative.
The Makey-Makey is an easy and fun way to learn about science and coding in a creative way. The students in Years 3-6 have explored playing the piano with fruit and vegetables and also created game controllers with play dough, foil and lead pencil!
Year 3 and Year 2 are also building their typing skills while using the Chromebooks. We can’t wait to share our creative projects using the Makey-Makeys at the end of the term.

This morning, our Year 4 students gathered with parents and family members to celebrate a beautiful class liturgy, reflecting on the scripture and learning explored throughout this termβs learning cycle. Through prayer, song and reflection, students shared their growing understanding of Godβs Word and the ways it invites us to live with faith, compassion and hope in our everyday lives. It was a special opportunity to come together as a Year 4 community and recognise prayer as central to our Catholic tradition β a time to pause, reflect and strengthen our connection with God and one another. A special thank you to our Year 4 students for their beautiful preparation, reverence and thoughtful participation in leading the liturgy. Your care and reflection created a meaningful experience for all who attended. Thank you also to our Year 4 teachers for their support and guidance in helping students prepare and bring this celebration to life. Thank you to all of our families who joined us and helped make this celebration so special.
