Week 5

I would like to start this blog by saying that I am very proud of the effort everyone has been putting into their work this week. We have work from a few students on display in the office! Well done everyone!

On Monday 3D went to Mrs Willis's class during our science rotations. There they learnt about magnets and what sort of materials are magnetic. Next Monday we are going to 3GH to do an experiment involving water.

This week I attended a graduate teachers' induction on Wednesday. The relief teacher left nothing but praise about 3D. She was very impressed at how much work they got done and even wanted to give out 2 student of the days!

Wednesday was also Ash Wednesday. I have heard that the mass was excellent and that all the students behaved themselves.

On Friday our school participated in Clean Up Our School (part of Clean Up Australia Day). I was very proud of how serious the year 3s were about cleaning up. After we had finished cleaning up our area there was no rubbish to be seen! Excellent work!

Our student of the day for Monday was Liam for following the rules. Liam is our first person to receive the award twice!

On Tuesday Tom was our student of the day for his creative maths thinking. Tom was able to think 'outside the box' to come up with a unique way to compare objects.

Keanu was Wednesday's student of the day for working hard and trying his best. Well done Keanu! Lillie was runner up for student of the day today and received a chocolate from Mrs G on Friday for her excellent efforts.


Thursday's student of the day was Jack for good maths work. Jack worked well with his group in a silent maths activity focussing on hundreds.

Rebecca was our student of the day on Friday for going out of her way to help others. Rebecca is the type of friend we like to have in 3D!

Everyone should be proud of their efforts this week. I look forward to a great week next week.
