The amazing artists in Grade 2 created some sensational sunflowers.

After looking at artwork by Ted Harrison a Canadian artist, who created beautiful coloured landscapes, Year 5 and 6 artists had a go at doing a warm and cool colour landscape.
For Ted it was less about a realistic picture and more about playing with colours. What a great approach and these are stunning, super work by some super artists.

 

 

Grade One artists created some beautiful sunflowers. These will brighten everyone’s day.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Year Five and Six students created some awesome ‘pop art’ style cakes this week They were able to choose two methods for designing the cakes. They could use a dice roll to choose the type of delicious cake and decorations or they could free pick them from a chart. I love the variety in all the different works.

Ciao Signora Formichelli

Teaching children to be cybersafe will help them to engage with the online world safely, responsibly and discerningly and can assist to protect them from online risks.

Sometimes children are faced with online situations that they simply don’t know how to handle. As a school we recognise the importance of Cyber Safety education. Therefore, children are taught the knowledge and skills they need to prevent cyberbullying, protect their personal information and how to deal with inappropriate images or behaviours they see online.

To complement the Cyber Safety education that we currently teach at school, Shannon Mullavey has organised sessions with Inform & Empower, who presented to parents earlier this year. Rather than wait until we can conduct these sessions onsite with the students, they will now be held Online. We require students to attend the Incursion session designated to their level. Teachers have built the Cyber Safety Sessions into the student’s learning next week (see Learning Grids).

Online Cyber Safety Sessions Monday September 13

• 9.30 to 10.50 am – Years 5 & 6 – 80 min
• 11.40 am to 1.00 pm – Years 3 & 4 – 80 min
• 2.00 pm to 2.45 pm – Preps, 1’s & 2’s – 45 min (Yes Preps can attend as well)

COST: FREE (covered by School Budget)

Parents, where possible, are asked to watch the Online Cyber Safety Session with their child/ren. We encourage a family discussion after the session to reinforce the learning that the children have been involved in.

Year Two students have worked hard to write some amazing Personal and Imaginative Narratives. Here are some students published writing! They have started their writing with a sizzling start and they have used some amazing “WOW” words to help describe the character and setting.
We hope you enjoy reading them.

Wonderful Grade One artists created cute as a button birds this week.  They were encouraged to use one colour for the bird and the complimentary colour as the background. They did a super job, sometimes the rainbow calls and it’s hard to confine yourself to two colours and that’s the benefit of being an artist, there are no rules. I love them all.

It’s lovely to see our families celebrating Father’s Day in their own unique way during lockdown!
