Day 8
We had our
end-of month assembly first thing today. Students who have been recognised by
their peers as being inquirers received their awards. Well done to Jacob for
being nominated by the Grade 6s class as an inquirer! The awards were followed
by a house game led by Mrs. Pettrawala who runs the Blossom Yoga class at SJA.
In the game, student representatives from each house and grade completed relay
races using yoga poses. We also practiced our breathing. Well done to Theta who
took first place in both games.
Michael
Neumann of Birnie Current Safe was our special guest speaker today. He spoke to
the class about electrical safety in the home. We heard amazing facts we did
not already know. Students took notes while he spoke. They will be using the
information they recorded to create an electrical safety poster. Mr. Neumann
ended up spending double the amount of time speaking to us than we had planned
on. We are extremely grateful to him for giving us his time and expertise.
Parents, please ask your child to summarise what they learned about electrical
safety today.
We ran out
of time to hear Areej’s and Sakshi’s learner profile presentations today. We
will hear them next week Monday/Tuesday instead.
Students
attended French, gym, and music class today.
Look out for
a letter about Movie Night from the parent guild coming home today.
