Art and About
Last Friday 23 Berinba students joined fellow art enthusiasts from schools in
our learning community to explore and learn at the National Art Gallery of
Australia.
They were excellent representatives of our school and we're inspired by the
amazing art they got to see and learn about. Favourites were the Australian
Indigenous art room, the Australian Colonial room and the modern art room.
In this room the students got to view Jackson Pollack's famous Blue Poles and
a new art installation of a never ending pumpkin patch.
Thanks to Mr Buffington for driving us safely.

Shoes
The colour is white
And I like the sight.
I like the sound
When I run round and round.
Yellow, green, pink or blue,
I like my shoes
When they are new.
They’re made out of leather
And are light as a feather.
By Amira Tuariki
Year One
Ugg Boots
I have Ugg boots.
They’re big and small.
But I never wear them
In the mall.
They’re fluffy and soft
Like the brush that mopped.
Ugg boots are comfy
And sometimes lumpy.
But when I relax
They may collapse!
By Apollo Jones
Yellow
Yellow is the sight of pretty, short
daffodils.
Yellow is the sound of people playing
happily.
Yellow is the smell of yummy
sunflowers.
Yellow is the touch of slippery lemons.
Yellow is the taste of juicy lemons.
Yellow is joyful
By Lucy (Year 2)
Flowers
Pointy, sharp, green thorns.
Beautiful red, pink Blossoms.
Bees come for pollen.
Axel Dukes
Year 4
Pink
Pink is the sight of a warm jacket.
Pink is the sound of opening a present,
Pink is the smell of strawberry ice-cream.
Pink is the rough touch of an oinking pig.
Pink is the taste of strawberry muffins.
Pink is happiness.
By Eloise (Year 1)

ANZAC Poem
Hear the bullets fly past missing
by an inch
See the men lying there lifeless
Smell the smoke in the air
making you cough
Taste your tears running down
your face
Fell your pulse raging inside
Touch your battle wounds
It’s a symbol of pride
By Logan Freebody
Year 6
My Magnificent Mum
When I look into your ocean blue
eyes, I feel like I’m lost at sea
When you smile, there is happiness
everywhere
When I’m upset, you have ears to
listen
I’m a little sprout and you’re a big
tall tree, you help me grow
You are strong, sporty and reliable,
that’s what makes you my mum.
By April Mann
Year 5

My shoes are pink
My shoes are comfortable
My shoes can jump in puddles

Crazy Hair Day
Berinba had a crazy time raising money for Cystic Fibrosis.
Yass High Transition
On the 21st of May, Mrs Kemp and Miss Watson came to Berinba
with some ex-students. They showed us what there is to do at
Yass High School and what the transition would be like.
Classes
As well as having similar classes to primary school like English
and Maths, they also have different ones like Language, HSIE and
Agriculture.
There are also heaps of different clubs such as the Social Justice
club, Chess club and the Minecraft club plus many more.
What we liked
I liked learning about all the different classes and knowing there
is someone there to help me with problems. (Liked Everything)
By Imogen
I liked learning about all of the different classes and the fact that
there are so many clubs to suite every one for what they liked.
(I liked everything)
by Bronte
We are very excited for high school!!
Head lice
The facts
head lice are one of the most commonly reported health complaints from parents and teachers
anyone can catch head lice regardless of their age, sex, or how clean their hair is
head lice move from one person's head to another via direct contact with the hair
head lice do not survive long when they are off a human head head lice do not live on furniture, hats, bedding or carpet head lice have built up some resistance to head lice treatments
Tips for parents in reducing the spread of head lice
As infestations are particularly common in primary schools, it is best to choose a treatment that can be used over time. There is no single solution to eradication, only persistence.
Regularly check your children's hair. Teach older children to check their own hair. Tie back and braid long hair.
Keep a fine tooth head lice comb in the bathroom and encourage all family
members to use it when they wash their hair.
A couple of drops of Tea Tree in your child’s Shampoo or Lavender Oil around
their hairline.
