On Wednesday 17 August, Year 1 continued their investigations into Being Biologists. They visited Sydney Zoo to participate in two interesting education sessions. In the first session, they got up close and personal with some living things as they displayed their knowledge of invertebrates and exoskeletons. The second session involved learning more about our Indigenous history and how to care for all living things - including plants and our environment. The final part of the day was spent exploring the habitats of the Zoo inhabitants so they could use this information in their own designs back at school. PHEW what a busy day!

Mathematics sits right along side of Science. Year Six today took their place value knowledge and measurement skills out of the classroom to take part in a Bean Bag Toss Challenge. Students had to estimate the distance they predicted they could throw, actually throw the bean bag, measure their throw using a range of tools, order their team mates throws in ascending order, using a number line and then convert to centimetres and kilometres.

It’s Science Week! 👩🏻🔬🔭👩🏼💻🧬👨🏻🔬🔬🧑💻 Mondays have become a favourite day in Year 5. They are exploring how Living Things adapt to harsh environments. They are exploring these ideas in many creative ways, through music, dance and drama, through our community garden and through visual arts and technology. Teams are loving exploring scientific concepts outside of the box.
