A reminder of some of the events coming up:

Amadeus Concert - 28 November 2:00 pm - Years 3 - 6 school hall 

Please join us for our Amadeus concert tomorrow at 2:00 pm in the hall.  The timing of an afternoon concert allows the Amadeus teachers to tune instruments, set up the concert space and have final rehearsals before they showcase the students' learning throughout the year.  All parents and carers are warmly invited to attend. 

All students should leave their instruments in their classroom after the concert.  All instruments will be cleaned and checked by the tutors during weeks 8 and 9 and repairs organised if needed.  We plan to return instruments once checked so that students may continue to play over the holidays.  

Open classrooms - Festive theme 

We are opening our classrooms with a ‘festive theme’ to finish the year.  This event is an opportunity for parents to come into the classroom to see their child’s learning and Christmas work or activities displayed around the room.

Around the classrooms 

Fibonacci Fair - Miss Blake and Mrs Petersen

Last Thursday, our Fibonacci students showcased their projects at the vibrant 'Fibonacci Fair.' It was a wonderful opportunity for them to present mathematics in creative and engaging ways to their peers. A long line of excited students eagerly awaited the chance to learn about a variety of mathematical concepts, shared by their friends in an interactive and fun setting.

Over the past few weeks, many students dedicated their lunch breaks to working on their projects, and their hard work truly paid off. The fair featured a diverse range of topics, from statistical analyses of dog breeds, to exploring the relationship between music and math, to creating angle games and examining the atomic masses in the Periodic Table.
