Highlights from Sports Day:
SESE: History / Geography
As I'm sure you heard we learned about Ancient Egypt and modern day Egypt. The girls were particularly fascinated by the Pharaohs, pyramids and life in Ancient Egypt. They even wrote in hieroglyphics!

The weather was perfect for our tree trail in the school grounds.
SESE. Geography
Double-tap to edit.
We have been learning about Space in R6 over the last few weeks. The girls have learned lots of interesting facts about the moon, sun and the solar system.
They also illustrated our solar system in art and their pictures turned out beautifully as you can see below.

Our official closing date for book reviews for our Rainbow Readers Club was May 9th and it was fantastic to see the girls make a great effort with this. Some are enthusiastically continuing with their book reports past the closing date. 😊Really well done to all who participated. Hopefully the girls continue to enjoy reading at home.
Our class novel is a fun story about 'A Monster Called Charlie' by Margrit Cruikshank. The photo below shows us reading it while having lunch in the garden last Friday.
