All about Australian Animals

and artworks in 2S

2S have recently finished a unit based around Australian animals and poetry. We wrote poems with repetition, alliteration and played around with similes, here’s a short sample of some- “Lizzy lizard loved licking lollipops” “Katie Koala kissed kind kookaburras” Isis

Within this unit we also produced some stunning Australian artwork of Gurrahman and Uluru.

We have also been enjoying our Bundjalung language program this term. Uncle Shane and Uncle Charlie taught us some Australian animal dances and we listened to some animal calls through the didgeridoo.

Hello to all of our school community.Hello to all of our families.We have a busy last month coming up and I hope to see everyone at the different activities.Our playground improvements keep on coming. Over the holidays there will be some new games painted on the ashphalt. They should be great. They include hop scotch, snakes and ladders, bean bag darts and an activities trail. Not to mention real handball courts.This weeks value is challenge. We are challenging the kids to really give their best go for all their work right up to the last week. Our senior boys went off to a Bro Speak excursion today. We hope they had a really great time. They went to Ballina and Booyong to see the biggest Flooded Gum in the world.The two year 5/6 classes will be having a project based learning day this week. The day is on thye subject of clay animation. Good luck kids.Please read the message from the canteen re heating and cooling of food. We will have to change that practice due to health regulations.

All payments for the excursion to Seaworld will need to be paid by the end of the week.

Our other end of year excursions also need to be paid the week before students leave, Friday 7 December 2018.

Remember that you can send your permission notes through skoolbag app and pay through the school website ‘make a payment’ tab.

Thanks everyone.All the best, Mr Michael Taylor, Principal.

WORD UP!Bundjalung word of the week.
