Technology challenge




Our technology challenge today was to construct a hut from newspaper. We were so excited because it looks like a castle. The tricky part was rolling the newspaper tightly so it was strong. We helped each other to make the best castle we could. We are very proud of our hut. What do you think?

Writing skills


During our 'intensive teaching time' we learn letter formations, sounds, while developing an understanding of how to build words. We practice these skills everyday so we can become independent and proud authors of our writing.

Story telling

Story telling is a great way to organise ideas, sequence events and develop language. If you are working with someone else you are also learning how to integrate ideas, negotiate, extend and challenge new thinking. A table full of dinosaurs inspired these clever learners to develop a story back in time. Of course there was a mum and a dad, both who had very busy days flying everywhere and looking after the babies. Sebbie's story was much more about dinosaur types and the cycle of life. Fantastic learning guys!
