Here are some students in action, exploring some stations as part of our mass and capacity unit.

Today in cooking club, the students made chocolate balls! They collected, measured and mixed the ingredients. They used words such as hard, soft and rough when talking about different textures.Then they rolled the balls and coated them with coconut. Words to describe the balls included delicious, amazing, great, messy and fantastic.

The Grade Five and Six students have been working on creating a game to teach people about Earth and/or space.  Today we tested our board and video games for the first time! Check out some pics of our first drafts below.  We will update you through construction phase, and we will hold a stall at the Festival of The Arts (Week 3 term four) to present our games to the school community!

Today was a wonderful sunny day for our gardening club!

We planted succulents into our beautiful handmade clay pots and visited the Blair St garden beds to water our cauliflower plants.

Thank you to the wonderful parent who donated the succulents, the children love them!

Below are some pictures of the students with their pots.

Thanks to the Moreland Kinder kids who came up and visited the grade five and six learning area. We had a great time sharing some Book Week stories with you!
