In expedition we learned about different vehicles. We shared our experiences of these vehicles. Then we drew and painted vehicles using shapes. We continued our learning outside by investigating and exploring different vehicles and how they move. #LovePlover
We’re on the move: in gymnastics we focussed on our fundamental movements, rocking forwards and backwards, side to side and rolling movements. We practised an egg roll and pencil roll. #LovePlover
Well done to all of the Year 2’s who attended the basketball tournament last week. We were a nervous bunch to begin with, and weren’t overly familiar with all of the rules! We showed courage and resilience and listened carefully to the coaching that was being given. As a result, we became braver and began to really put into practice what we were being shown. Super special mention to Hunter, who was recognised for his tremendous effort by the tournament staff and he was even given a special prize! What a great time we all had!
I We Care Crew – we discussed emotions, how they make us feel and how we can express them in our faces and actions. We then thought of strategies to help out emotions and tried out a bit of meditation to relax and feel calm or tired. We played the feelings corner game… asking different scenarios and what emotions the children may feel. Can you guess how they would feel? #LovePlover
We tasted lots of exotic fruit from Handa’s Surprise. Then we described what the fruits were like. After the children did some observational paintings of the fruit. #LovePlover
Today we have been talking about the changes we can see in our plants, since planting the seeds. We spoke about the roots, shoots, leaves and stalk and how you need to be gentle with them as hey are living things. We learnt that plants need sun, water and to eat nutrients from the soil, to grow. We did some active learning to help us remember which are the roots and which are the shoots.

Year 4 showed great courage today when they embarked upon their skipping journey! Adele came to teach us the fundamental skills required to be able to skip in many different ways. Over the next few months, we plan to perfect these initial skills and then learn even more ways to skip than we already have. In June, we will be even more courageous when we take on the competition at a Skipping Festival where we will display craftsmanship and quality!
Let’s keep skipping, smiling and supporting each other folks. We will all be experts in no time!
