Term 2 has certainly been an exciting and busy time in the prep classroom.  A highlight this term has been the creation of the Prep garden as part of our HASS unit on special places. The students planted some beautiful flowers and have been diligently watering and weeding them on a roster. We have also planted some sunflower and marigold seedlings that we hope will spring up over the holidays.

Just like those beautiful flowers, our reading and writing continues to blossom. It is so lovely to hear that students are reading to grandparents over Facetime, or baby brothers and sisters. Such an exciting time! Our writing books are also bursting with sentences as we learn to write independently. Our letter parties are still a hit – and we work hard in our literacy lessons so we can move onto the next party! Finally, our NAIDOC celebrations were beautiful this year, and we had a wonderful day performing our sit-down dances, watching the bigger students take to the stage and taking part in other activities such as weaving and beading.

Thank you all for a wonderful term, and we are all looking forward to Term Three.
