21.01.2022 Here’s to our year in Grade 1.... here’s to the things that we’ve seen and we’ve done!

20.01.2022 It can be really tempting to sleep in every day while you’re on school holidays. But consider getting your body into a routine a couple of weeks before school g...oes back. It’ll be easier in the long run than constantly missing the bus or your lift to school. It can also be really useful to limit screen-time before bed to improve your quality of sleep. #ReadyForSchool #TheNextStep #TasGovEducation #LearnersFirst

09.01.2022 What a terrific time our Grade 4 students had today! Our first stop was Cataract Gorge where we were taken on a tour by Cecilia who gave us a greater understanding of the indigenous significance of the area. We created beautiful mandalas out of natural materials and had a great time playing games. Later we visited QVMAG at Inveresk where we viewed some interesting exhibits including the Tamar Estuary Exhibition. We were also treated to some fantastic workshops run by students at the Big Picture School about how to reuse materials to make bikes, which in turn raises money for the UNHCR. How awesome! Thanks to everyone involved and to our wonderful parent volunteers!

Enjoy this quick snapshot of their presentation.

On Monday the name of the app was announced and some of our students who helped name the app were lucky enough to be awarded some prizes. The name of the app will be: The Keys to History: The Mysteries of Chin Kaw’s Shop.
