Year 4 Reflections on Celebration of Learning and 2022

‘Wow! This year has gone by so quickly! And what a year we’ve had! On Tuesday 25 October we had our Celebration of Learning. Lots of parents, guardians and guests came to see what we were learning this year. We had one performance and three activities. We performed Silent Night with a cup section and a choir section.

We had a few stations, which were: a CLP station, an Art station, a Mathematics station, and a reflection station. We had so much fun sharing our work with our parents!’

‘This year, we went on camp, and it was out first camp. We split up into several camp groups. Our camp place was in Tallong. We had a group leader and a teacher with each group. The activities were exciting and fun. Everyone would remember the wonderful food Cheffrey made for us. It’s mouth-watering to think of! Some of the people there were scared because of the flying fox. Some of the other activities were mountain biking, bushwalking, low ropes, and initiatives.

This year we also had an excursion to the Sydney Writers’ Festival and got to hear from many talented authors. Everybody loved listening to the author’s presentations because they were so inspiring.’

‘A highlight from this morning was reading the book, The Rabbits by John Marsden with my mum. I was able to share my learning in CLP this term. We discussed how the numbats were like the indigenous people in the early settlement and the rabbits were like the British people who came to Australia, on the First Fleet.’

‘I really enjoyed the Maths activity because I liked challenging myself with the time problems. I also liked giving my mum a gratitude flower which I had made. She felt so happy to know that I appreciated my family so much. The Year 4 performance was a wonderful way to start our celebration this morning. It was so much fun and even though it was a little hard to memorise and keep the rhythm and beat of Silent Night, it was definitely a great experience, and our parents loved it!’
