WELL-DESERVED BREAK!
The Grade 3s came bustling in with excitement on Monday morning, very happy to see one another after our well-deserved autumn break. It was fantastic to hear about all the different adventures and memories they each made, whether it was family and grandparents visiting from afar, making and creating something new or visiting an unfamiliar place, they truly had so much to share!








"TRICK Or TREAT"
A SPOOOK here and a SPOOOK there... even Mr Benny Bones and Neko-chan felt that it was fitting to dress up for this occasion. 











🌄
During Unit, our Reverential Rhinos worked in pairs to try and decide which natural resources were classified as renewable and which ones are nonrenewable. 
We also discussed the rock cycle and the main types of rocks found in the earth's crust.






🚨
On Thursday morning, we had a bit of an (expected) interruption. Our cellphone emergency notifications went off requesting us to follow the Hyogo safety procedure for an emergency tsunami evacuation drill. Once again, the Grade 3s did a fantastic job fallowing the teacher's instructions.

Cross Country
To end off the eventful week, we had our annual Upper Primary Cross Country Event.
It was a great success!
The Grade 3's and 4's participated in the 1km endurance race and the Grade 5's and 6's ran the 2km race. After the individual races they ran their relay race, which was a lot of fun with friendly competition. Well done to all our runners for their unbeatable effort!
















Congratulations, to Shun for taking first place out of our boys, followed by Nicolas with second place and Sio in third place!

Congratulations, to Maelle for taking first place out of our girls, followed by Olivia with second place and Emily in third place!


I hope you all have a happy weekend!

🎶  2 WEEKS TO GO!  🎶  Our Upper Primary students continue to give it their all during our 'UP Spring Musical' practice sessions. Afterall, we only have 2 weeks left to practice as a team! SWIMMING The excitement was real on Monday, the long awaited anticipation for their swimming lessons had finally arrived and our Grade 3s were bursting at the seams with enthusiasm. Their swimming coaches gave feedback on how great all our little swimmers were, good job guys! LAMENTATION Going back to 1930, the Reverential Rhinos got in touch with their emotions and feelings after watching a movement piece by Martha Graham called, Lamentation. I was super impressed with their descriptive words to explain what they felt after watching the video. THANK YOU🍬 Some spoils from Greece! We are super thankful for how thoughtful and caring our fellow classmates are, bringing back a piece of his holiday from Greece to share with us, YUMMY! 🌍🌎🌏 Pop into the STEM room and check out the Grade 3...

  My Wonder Wall Brick Learning about the natural features of the earth and what is classified as natural phenomena, the Reverential Rhino's had many interesting questions about the 'hazardous side' of nature. They took to their Wonder Wall and built it higher with questions to help get them started on their inquiry cycle.  - Do natural disaster's happen on other planets? - Could lava from a volcanic eruption cause a wild fire? - How do tornado's come about? Who said Mathematics can't be tasty!? Some excitement in class to aid us in learning about data collection, interpretation, graphs and diagrams. We used marbles - no, not the ones that roll on the ground, the ones made by Meiji that you put in your mouth - to help us sort, classify and display our recordings in the form of a chart, diagram and graph.  During English, we explored various connective words that help us join sentences together to make them understandable and more appealing. Ballet Dancers As par...
