Year 5 News by Greg McCallum
With Term 3 coming to a close at the end of next week, I would like to take this opportunity to thank parents and guardians for working with teachers to ensure positive outcomes for your children.
Educational Achievement
During Term 3 students have been designing and creating chariots which were powered by Sphero’s. Over the past week students have had the opportunity to race their chariots. While some were designed solely for performance others added a touch of flare. The students had a great time racing their chariots and seeing who would come out on top!
Student Wellbeing
Arriving on time, wearing a school uniform, having the appropriate resources and getting a good night sleep are all crucial elements in supporting positive wellbeing in children.
If you require assistance there are many trusted organisations that are specifically available to support children and young people's wellbeing and mental health and that can provide guidance to parents about how to support their child. I have included some links below.
