Kindergarten began the term with a fantastic excursion to Calmsley Farm. We had a great time on the tractor ride, milking the cow, patting the animals and watching the sheep dog show. The excursion grew our background knowledge that enabled us to read and write facts about farm animals. 

Continuing our learning about non fiction texts, we are now engaged in discovering new and interesting facts about dinosaurs. We have drawn labelled diagrams of dinosaurs such as the Pterodactyl and Apatosaurus and created our own dinosaur fossils. In mathematics we are learning to use the rekenrek to add and subtract quantities beyond 10.

We enjoyed participating in our first sports carnival, grandparent’s day, showing our support for the Matildas and can not wait for our first Book Week Parade!

Kindergarten students had a great time at the Science Fair. We loved all the slime, explosions and levitating matches! Term 3 has been full of excitement and lots of great learning opportunities.
