On Monday of week 10 (17th of Sept) OLC will be holding a Learning Journey afternoon. This is a open classroom opportunity for you to come into Year 1P with your child after school. You will be invited to have a look around the classroom and the children can show you some of the work they have been doing over the year.
The classroom will be open from 3.30pm - 5.00pm for you to come in at your leisure. I look forward to sharing this wonderful year of work with you and your child.
If you have any queries or questions, please email me.
I'm sure by now your children have come home with news of a mysterious animal sighted in Dunsborough. We knew little about this animal but did find out that the man - Greg Normandy sighted an animal that was the size of a dog with orange and white stripes.
See below the newspaper article from the Margaret River Region News
The children have been buzzing with excitement as yesterday the mystery animal made an appearance in the courtyard. Luckily we had some photographers take some photos of the evidence.
We then discovered that out in the wild, there are a number of hybrid animals and that have been given new names such as:
- The Liger (Lion/Tiger)
- The Carma (Camel/Llama)
- Wholphin (Whale/Dolphin)
Below is the link to the video we watched.
Luckily, Mrs. Sherborne and I put our money together and paid for some very important information from National Geographic, which lead to information about a strange animal, called the Trabbit!
Have a read of the information below:
This is the start of our Talk for Write unit into information reports! Get ready for some very creative writing...and animals!
Shoe box items are coming in thick and fast, if you could please bring in your shoe box items and donation of $2.50 for postage by Friday 7th of September, we would be very appreciative :)
If you are not sure of what your child is bringing, please email me and I can let you know.
With Father's Day fast approaching we need a portrait photo of everyone's Dad for a special activity this week. We need the pictures by Tuesday (at the latest). So please get out your camera and take a selfie of yourself NOW or a picture just like this great Dad below:
We only need your face...so no need for any full body shots :)
For some reason my blog post from last week has gone astray into the universe! Here it is:
Next term, we have a wonderful Pre-Service Teacher from Edith Cowan University named Miss Claire Gilpin. She will be joining us every Wednesday from the 22nd of August (tomorrow) until the end of the term and then beginning her final practicum from weeks 1-6 in Term 4.
Please feel free to come in and say 'Hi' to Miss Gilpin and we look forward to her joining Year 1P next term!
