Kindergarten

In Week 3, we were fortunate to have so many of our wonderful families join us for our very first Learning Walk. The students were so excited to show their families around the learning space, talk to their learning showcased on the walls, and interview a family member for our History Unit focused on exploring how the activities in which families engage together have changed over time. 

In Mathematics, the students continue to develop a solid foundation of number skills by focusing on sequencing numbers, representing numbers, identifying the number before and after a given number and counting forwards and backwards from different starting points. The students continue to develop their understanding of numbers and apply this knowledge to everyday life. 

Our BeFit sessions are an enjoyable way for our students to build their collaboration skills by working together to play a range of games. From ball skills, to running games, to dancing, the Kindergarten students are always busy having fun with their peers and keeping fit. 

Fresh from their successful Learning Walk in Week 3, the students were excited to showcase their learning in an even wider forum, as they presented a dramatic performance of the narrative, ‘We’re Going on a Bear Hunt’, during the Community Assembly in Week 5. This celebration of learning was received enthusiastically by parents, staff and fellow students, many of whom were heard to be chanting, ‘We’re Going on a Bear Hunt…’ as they exited the hall on Friday afternoon!

As we draw closer to the end of Term 2, we are fast approaching our 100 days of Kindergarten. We look forward to celebrating this milestone in early Term 3.
