Pre-Nursey classes have been exploring the world of dinosaurs. It has been wonderful to see them so inspired to take risks in their learning and ‘have a go’ at the new experiences on offer.
In the expressive arts and design area children used large dinosaurs to make footprints on paper. To develop their critical thinking skills we provided inset puzzles, while in the sand tray dinosaur skeletons were discovered.
On the malleable table we added dinosaurs for the children to cover in playdough and we encouraged them to look carefully for the patterns left by the dinosaur’s skin. We used the dinosaur dance to move around the building and were delighted that Mr Brett saw us, ‘stomping, chomping and roaring!’
Finally, some small dinosaurs were born from salt dough eggs, these were fascinating for Pre-Nursery and some of our parents were lucky enough to share this experience with their children during our ‘School in Action’ event.

What a wonderful day we had hosting our annual Chinese New Year Temple Fair on campus on Sunday. This great community event included games, a Lion Dance, Dragon Dance, a face changing performance, traditional crafts, a bouncy castle, food vendors and gift stalls.Thanks to everyone who made the event possible and magical!
Before the holiday break, we had the privilege of hosting a memorable awards ceremony to celebrate the outstanding achievements of our students in sporty After-School Activities (ASAs). This special event allowed us to recognise the dedication, effort, and talent demonstrated by our students throughout the term.
Today, our students had the wonderful opportunity to take part in two live broadcasts with CNN and on the important topic of Climate Change.
