On Tuesday we had our last Year 2-4 assembly for 2012. Mrs Perejma’s class hosted the assembly and our class presented some Art work called Big Mouths. We folded art paper into thirds and drew a face onto it. In the middle section of the page we opened the mouth to show a picture inside.
Lots of children received awards in our class: Nathan, Jenny, Jamie, Samuel, Sarah, Maisie and Aiden.
Here are some photos of our assembly. We’ll add some Art work pictures soon.
Today we held went to our Year 2- 4 Assembly. Miss Pinkster’s class were the hosts and most classes had some learning to share.
Miss Hunt’s class showed yellow fish art work inspired by Paul Klee.
Mrs Chick’s class shared the narrative picture books that they created. They held a special book launch in the Library, with lots of special guests attending.
Mrs Freebairn’s class showed Inquiry learning. They’ve been investigating rain forests. They had posters, tree models and a PowerPoint presentation.
Mr Wait presented the awards and photos of our class member who received an award are coming.
We had lots of fun seeing what other classes have been learning about. It’s always really interesting to see what people have been doing.

This week is Bookweek. The Children’s Book Council of Australia hold an annual competition to see which is the best book in a variety of categories. There are a number of books nominated in different sections and then the judges vote for a winner.
Our Library is having every class visit the Library this week to work with Mrs Langham on lots of different Bookweek activities. Every year level is doing something different. Stay tuned for some photos later in the week, after our visit on Thursday.
We have been reading lots of the books in the lead up to Bookweek and will be having a dress-up day this Friday. We are able to dress as any character from a book – our imaginations are running wild!!! We will be showing our costumes to the rest of the school during our whole school assembly on Friday morning.
Here’s a poll for you to vote on your favourite book for the Early Childhood Books. Please vote for the book you enjoyed reading.
Here’s poll for Picture Book of the Year – vote for the one you really liked.

Today Miss Hunt’s Year 2 class hosted our Years 2-4 assembly. We thought they did a great job – it’s not easy hosting an assembly.
Some of the items were sharing writing stories, with the use of adjectives, and our Girls Junior Choir sang a song. They sounded wonderful. Well done to Mrs Rayner who is the choir co-ordinator.
Congratulations to the three members of our class earned awards.
Oscar: for great work across all areas of the curriculum.
Will: for developing his computing skills and being able to run all of the music and IT needs for assemblies (check out his photo below)

On Tuesday our class hosted the Year 2 – Year 5 assembly.
To prepare for our assembly we needed to go to different classes to see who had work to share. Then we typed up our assembly agenda and worked out which students would present items or introduce classes or speakers.
As the time got nearer to starting the assembly we had people who were excited and very nervous. It’s a big challenge for Year 2/3 students to host an assembly.
This week’s assembly had a combination of items – percussion items, whole class poems, body facts, story maps, certificate presentations and a whole lot more!
Congratulations to our whole class – they presented and introduced each item very confidently and made sure the audience were engaged the whole time! Well done team!
At the end of these assembly photos you’ll see our 4 certificate awards recipients. Congratulations to Ned, Chloe, Lachlan and Charlotte! Great work guys!!

Today we celebrated Harmony Day at school and all around Australia. The message for Harmony Day in 2012 is that Everyone Belongs, which means all Australians are a welcome part of our country, regardless of their background. It’s a time to reflect on where Australia has come from, recognising the traditional owners of this land. It’s also about community participation, inclusiveness and respect – celebrating the different cultures that make Australia a great place to live.
We celebrate the cultural diversity of our nation.
Orange is the colour that we wear to show our support for Harmony Day.
OUR SLEG students held a Harmony Day assembly to show what each class had done to celebrate the day and to discuss what Harmony Day means for all of us.
Here are the photos from our day:
