Grade 5
This Term the Grade Five students are looking at 'Space concepts' which will tie in nicely with our "Mission to Mars" excursion to VSSEC later in the Term.
This Term is a very busy Term in the Grade 5 Unit. We have NAPLAN starting this week, Grade 5 urban camp in week 6, as well as the BIOCATS and Mission to Mars excursions later in the term.
The Melbourne Urban Camp is a fantastic camp that teaches students about city living through the use of the Melbourne public transport system and visiting a range of Melbourne's exciting venues such as: Artvo, Queen Victoria Market, Melbourne Sports and Aquatic centre, Hard Rock Rock-Climbing and the Eureka Sky-deck. It is a exciting camp that grade 5 students thoroughly enjoy each year.
As the weather gets colder we ask that students to rug up especially with the cooler mornings and flu season around the corner. Please ensure that all uniform (especially new uniform) is clearly named to avoid lost property. Hats are no longer required at School so these can be taken home to be washed before we need them again in term four.
Students in Grade 5 continue to have the opportunity to participate in a range of extra curricula activities such as:
We thank you for your continued support and we look forward to what this Term has to offer.
Kind regards,
Britt McGowan, Russell Marland, Karly O’Toole & Laurel Prowse
