A Wonderful Term of Learning

This term has been a wonderful journey of growth and discovery across all year levels. It has been pleasing to see students’ fluency strengthen and to celebrate the impressive pieces of writing they have created, showcasing the skills and knowledge they have developed. This term our novel studies were also a highlight, with students engaging deeply and returning to their chosen texts again and again, reflecting their growing love of literature.

We were also delighted to welcome back Mrs Quabba, who has returned to teaching Italian. It has been so lovely to have her rejoin our team, and our students are thoroughly enjoying exploring all things Italy through language and culture.

Beyond the classroom, students engaged in rich, hands-on learning experiences through a number of educational excursions. Our Prep and Year 3 students visited the Botanical Gardens, where mathematics was brought to life in a natural setting. Year 1 travelled to Forrest Beach to explore the concept of rules in the real world. Year 4 had the privilege of visiting Mungalla Station to engage in an authentic First Nations cultural experience. We are incredibly fortunate in Ingham to have so many wonderful local places where our students can connect their learning to the community around them.

The term concluded on a high note with our Dance Showcase, where students proudly shared their dance skills and celebrated the learning journey they had undertaken. This event was certainly a highlight of the term and a wonderful reflection of the hard work and creativity of our students.

I would like to sincerely thank our dedicated teachers for their commitment to creating engaging and meaningful learning experiences for every child. We are fortunate to have such a supportive and passionate staff who continually strive to bring out the best in every learner. As we close the term, I wish our school community a safe, restful, and happy holiday break.
