On Thursday the 21st of June the students enjoyed a performance called "Music in My Suitcase" from the Mara! Band from the company Musica Viva.
It was an amazing performance and experience for the students to see live music, learn about other cultures and languages and learn about different instruments, all while singing catchy songs!
Special congratulations to Ariana in Year 2 and Natasha in Year 5 for being brave enough to teach Mara how to count to 5 in their cultural languages of Nepalese and Hindi, which she then performed as part of their song, "Bir Mumdur" which the students learnt in Creative Arts lessons before the performance.
The students all thoroughly enjoyed the experience and lots of fun was had by all!

Week 5 in Year 6. Remembrance Day, 11/11: we gathered as a community of faith to remember and honour all those who have served and sacrificed for peace - in times of war, conflict, and peacekeeping. We remember the men and women who gave their lives so that we may live in freedom, and we prayed for those who continue to serve today. After our reflection, we made artworks.

In Week 4, the Year 4 students attended Longneck Lagoon Environmental Education Centre at Maralya to support our Integrated Unit 'Earth and Space'. Although it was a hot day, there was lots of valuable learning and fun to be had. Hands-on activities included: the lowdown on soil, investigating erosion, and soil and stone investigations. Everyone enjoyed the scenic walk along the bush track to Longneck Lagoon, and were excited to see a rabbit, kangaroo, bugs, and birdlife along the way.
