included a

Remembrance Day poem, a history of

Remembrance Day,

the Ode, laying of the wreath and the

official minute’s

silence. The student

body donated a total of $251.45 towards the Pozières French-Australian Schools Project. Thank you, Franklin!

Heidi Hodeo’s Circus Rodeo follows in

the traditions of the early travelling circuses and rodeos, but with an

excitingly different spin… HULA

HOOPS!

GHANA BEAT MY DRUM Incorporates audience participation, singing, dancing and drumming and leaves audiences

feeling exhilarated and inspired as

well as enlightened in the ways and culture of Africa and especially

Ghana. Jonas teaches students

words from the local languages, Ga

Tui Mzema and Effutu and with their newly learnt words Jonas gets the entire audience

participating in traditional call and response songs.

While Moving in Mathematics’ is a program designed to enhance mathematics lessons through mixing fundamental

movement skills with mental arithmetic. These exciting games allow students to be running, hopping, skipping,

jumping, throwing, kicking, etc whilst at the same time practising maths concepts learnt in class. Research has proven

that by keeping the body moving while learning enhances cognitive function and improves memory. One of the main

aims of this program is to get students to enjoy learning mathematics, in a fun and interactive way. 5G has been trialling

this program and all students have reported positive outcomes, saying they are enjoying the physical activity and they

are learning something at the same time. Levels of engagement in mathematics have also improved as a result and we

are excited to continue this program.

Tumut Schools As Community Centres As an extension from last week, we will be doing activities which look at who is in our family, and

what interests our children as individuals. We will be making faces and a collage of family portraits.

Call Krystle on 6947 6961 or come to the SaCC building to find out more! If you can, please bring along a piece of fruit for fruit time!!

In 3/4R this week, we have been having a lot of fun

conducting a range of experiments for our Science unit

“Material World”. We have been testing a range of things

such as how quickly different materials decompose, how

stretch or rigid materials are and the absorbency level of a

variety of materials.

3/4R students this week have

also been thinking outside of the

box during mathematics lessons,

creating their own set of

outdoor activities, combining

mathematics and physical

activity, to practice their

Multiplication skills.
