In 3B we enjoy working together, helping each other and celebrating each others' talents. Most of all we aim for a happy and productive day, every day!
On the last day of term, Kerrimuir classes opened their doors for parents to come in and see all the lovely work in books and on display.
Prep A students enjoyed rolling their painted, hard-boiled eggs in the annual 'Super Egg' competition. Each grade rolls eggs down a special course, with the winning entry from each class going through to the finals where it races against the mysterious 'Super Egg'. This year Jackson was Prep A's finalist with a beautifully painted Batman egg.
Later in the morning all students ran in the Kerrimuir Gift. Although there were no individual winners from Prep A, the whole class won the Specialists' Cup this week - what a fantastic way to finish off a busy term. GREAT JOB PREP A!See you next term!
Harmony Day Kerrimuir celebrated Harmony Day with a burst of orange, a multitude of flags and a whole school photograph in the shape of our continent. At a special assembly acknowledging the original owners of the land, and reflecting on the wide range of nationalities that now find themselves at Kerrimuir, all students and staff posed for the photo - we can't wait to see how it turns out. Then it was back to the classroom to study the globe and identify our various countries of origin, while remembering that we're all Australian now. Great day!
This was an interesting session because after chalking the outline of each others' bodies, Buddies had to think of two or three words to describe themselves and these were added to the shapes. It was fun to walk around afterwards and guess to whom each description applied. Have a look!
It has been an interesting week for Prep A. On Monday we worked with our Grade 5 Buddies once again. On Wednesday, Jada introduced her gorgeous kitten, Millie, to the class. Then Ruby showed us how a volcano erupts using her own model, some bicarbonate of soda, detergent, food dye and vinegar. Thanks, Ruby, for such an entertaining experience.
We've been looking at patterns during Mathematics sessions. Before creating our own pattern pictures we tried out some ideas using wooden shapes.
