Congratulations to Lara, Lily and Marcus for organising the fundraiser.

15.01.2022 Wombat Stew comes to Kinder A group of talented actors from 4/5 Williams visited the Kinder Pears to perform ‘Wombat Stew’. The Pears were entranced by the dynamic, amusing performance of a favourite story of ours. After the performance the Pears showed the actors around our room. We have been learning about Wombat Stew and all things to do with Australian animals this term, so it was exciting to show the performers our campsite, our Science Table, our graph of our favourite Australian animals and our Wombat Stew work. Thank you so much to Drama Teacher Ally for her work toward such a wonderful performance.

14.01.2022 Our Kinder Apples would like to thank Miss Mansfield for creating yet another inspiring dramatic play centre in their classroom. We are so lucky in our school to be supported by Teacher Assistants with such creativity. Miss Mansfield always makes our classrooms look so beautiful. The Kinder children are loving role playing in the Apple Tree Farm.

13.01.2022 Celebrating Spring in Kinder As part of our Wellbeing program in Kinder we like to celebrate each season and think about what we feel grateful for in each part of the year. With the arrival of Spring the Kinder community celebrated by bringing in flowers from home (or Grandma’s) for a Kinder Fruit Salad day. Kinder Pear Nihan’s sisters Nikita and Nishita from 5/6J, and mum Priya joined us to lead us in creating two ‘athapootalams’ or floral carpets. Each Kinder student participated in the creation of these beautiful Spring celebrations. Mrs McMinn joined us and was asked to place the final central flower. Thank you to the Sudhesh family for helping us to celebrate the arrival of Spring in our community.

06.01.2022 Some of the wonderful Art works around the school.

06.01.2022 Grade 1/2 have been making gratitude jars and filling with things that they are grateful for. What are you grateful for? The winter sunshine? Your friends and family? Last nights yummy dinner?

06.01.2022 This term in Prep to Grade 2 we have had a focus on procedural texts and how they are organised when we write them. Teachers have used real experiences such as building Humpty Dumpty a wall, Little Miss Muffet a tuffet, making raisin toast or fairy bread and tying shoelaces to build up student knowledge about the features of this text type. Students have been particularly excited about the opportunity to make and eat things and know that for a procedural text they need a title, a list of what they need and numbered steps showing what they do.
