Cooking
Our Term 3 Cooking program is well under way. Students from across the school have been given the opportunity to learn cooking techniques and skills that can be used at home.
Pictured below are students from 5/6E and 2/3S cooking quiches with a range of ingredients that include items from our school garden.
If you are unsure what to cook for dinner tonight ask your child what they have been making in their cooking class and use it as an opportunity for the children help with dinner preparations.
Positive Behaviour for Learning
Congratulations to all the students who have been successfully lining up to go home every afternoon. The way you show respect by listening to your teachers and following their instructions is improving. Thank you for walking on the paths and taking pride in safely leaving our school grounds. Our class GI Card containers were extra full this morning meaning you must be working really hard to make great choices. This week, remember...the 3:15pm bell signals home time. Please move quickly to your going home line without taking the opportunity to spend extra time with your friends. It is very important for everyone's safety that you are supervised by a teacher at your going home lines.
