Grade Five: Heads down, tails up in Term 3!
Holy guacamole, Batman! Term Two was so jam packed with camps, NAPLAN, excursions and student teachers... we're in awe, just remembering everything our students achieved last term! This term promises to be a little quieter, allowing us to dig right into our lessons and aim for great personal growth as individuals and as a year level.
