Our Children

L Reynolds, Principal

Granville East Takes to the Stage! Congratulations to our 35 students who performed at the Sydney Opera House on Monday. Our Senior Choir sang with a combined primary school choir of almost 600 students and our Dance Group performed “Essence of the Eighties” in spectacular fashion!

I was extremely proud of our students—they proved that “GEPS is The Best”!

4/5S have had their eyes on local government this term, exploring our local council through

collaborative work on our wiki. Students have used all sorts of interactive tools to help in

Our Working Together wall shows some of the work we have be completing online.

Right now, our wall shows our Tagxedos that we

worked collaboratively to create. They are an image

made up of words we think represent our local

council.

An example of

our Tagxedos!

4/5S working collaboratively in the computer

lab to answer their own deep thinking inquiry

questions. We work with our talking partners

to help each other to think critically and crea-

tively.

We work on a padlet so we can answer questions and respond to each other, all while seeing our responses be posted live on the projector!
