We have been very busy in the classroom looking at some of the books that have been shortlisted for Book Week Awards. One of the books we have read lately is “The Stone Lion” by Margaret Wild. We have been using this book as a chance to develop some skills associated with Bloom’s Taxonomy. This book features a statue of a Stone Lion as one of the main characters. When discussing statues, we did some research into a well know Australian statue….”The Dog On The Tuckerbox”. Here is a photo of Will and Brodie working hard to find out more about this particular statue.

A special welcome to Molly, our new Year 3 student. Molly and her family have just arrived from England and we welcome them to our school community. Molly didnt take long to demonstrate that she could very well be the next Aussie tennis star or maybe she is just getting her skills ready to land a big fish! We hope that Molly and her family will enjoy their time with us at Craigburn.

Recently, our class had the opportunity to participate in a tennis coaching session organised by Mrs Pettman. We all had a great time and who knows, some of us could be tennis stars of the future? Here are some action shots of Holly, Jess and Amelie all showing great skills at the session.

Congratulations to Will, Ryan, Chloe and Temika for being presented with “Assembly Awards” at our recent year level assembly. All of these students have demonstrated outstanding achievements that clearly represent our School Values. Well done to you all!
