Year 4 students have commenced the school year by taking part in a series of\u00a0getting to know you<\/em>\u00a0activities designed to help every child feel welcome, connected and confident as they settle into their new classroom community. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guided by our pastoral theme\u00a0Belonging Begins Here<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Relationships Matter<\/em>, students explored what it means to build friendships, show kindness and create an environment where everyone feels valued. One highlight was the Find Four Ice-Breaker, where students moved around the room to discover classmates who matched each category. This activity encouraged conversation, curiosity and plenty of smiles as children learned new things about one another. Students also created an All About Me Shoe artwork, decorating a shoe outline with symbols, words and drawings that represent who they are. These artworks now brighten our learning space and celebrate the individuality each child brings to the group. Across all activities, the focus remained on nurturing a strong sense of belonging and forming meaningful relationships within their classroom community.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
