21.01.2022 An exciting morning for both staff and students today. Orientation for 2021... a time to meet peers, new teachers and welcome new students to Sacred Heart. As Dr Seuss quotes ‘You’ll never be bored when you try something new. There’s really no limit to what you can do!’

21.01.2022 In loose parts play this week, we have established a Mud Club. The younger students design and make their creations and they are then judged for firmness, colour and decorations all within a very strict time schedule. We have also been having a lot of fun with pool noodles that have been used in a variety of ways, even jumps and limbo. As soon as the music starts playing, the pack up crew spring into action packing all of the equipment away ready for the next day!

11.01.2022 There were some strange things happening in the 3/4 classrooms on Friday! Students dressed up as wizards and invented a magic potion. They had strict instructions from the head wizards Mrs Johnstone and Mr Jackson, that their potion could only be 600 millilitres. They had to use 5 different ingredients in their potions. Unfortunately, if the potion went over 600 ml it would explode. Grade 4 students had an added task: they had to use an ingredient under 100 mls. The students did a wonderful job of applying their knowledge of capacity.
