Hello from S-Orange! With Term 2 now in full swing, we are all settled back in after the holidays and getting to work. From trying to soak up some of the last sun in the garden and playground before winter comes through, to working hard in classroom across all areas of learning. We really enjoyed reading and writing about ‘Luna Roo’, the book that was selected for National Simultaneous Story Time this year. Very much looking forward to what the rest of the year brings!

Rain, rain go away! Come again another day! (or after playtime!)
As we find the cold, wet weather begins to set in, students in Orange Class have been making the most of the days where we get a break in the weather and can have fun in the playground (rugged up of course!).
Especially popular have been the puddles that we have been finding and jumping in!

Hello from S Yellow class. We have been busy since our last message.
Exercise is fun! We have been jumping, in the classroom and on the trampoline. We visit the gym several times a week – the swing is everyone’s favourite. Our aim is getting sharper and we can throw the balls into the target from further away.
We used a squeegee to make wipe paintings. By pressing paper onto the paint, we made prints of our artworks.
The day was so sunny and warm that we went for some long walks around the playground. It was even warm enough to play with the water.
In class, we have been learning the symbols for a lot of different sensory activities. We have published our class writing into another book.

Today is National Public Education Day — a time to celebrate our incredible public schools, preschools and TAFEs, and the principals, teachers and support staff who work in them.

Public education brings together children and young people from a range of diverse backgrounds and builds a cohesive community which works as one to create equity, hope, and opportunity.

It provides lifelong benefits to students through access to education, improved health, wellbeing and employment.

That’s something to celebrate! 🎉

A HUGE thank you to The Country and Women’s Association Lindisfarne Branch for donating these wonderful Tasmanian books to our school library. Tassie Rhymes for Little Tigers by Narelda Joy is a wonderful resource to read aloud or share with a friend. The braille edition has been especially welcome!

A little look into our S Red classroom this week.
Whether it’s trying something new, building independence, or connecting with others, our students are always learning in their own unique ways. We are so proud of the way our students engage and grow each day 🙂
