Great things we've been doing lately...


Basketball Gala Day
On Wednesday 8th of August, the Grade 3’s and 4’s went to MSAC to play basketball. We shot, passed, dribbled, (not on our jackets) won and lost. One of our teams were in the grand final, but unfortunately we lost. We all had a great day! 

Breda’s Bees
“Buzzzzz…. AAAHHHH! Bees everywhere!” Jokes, Clinton’s cousin, Breda, came to our school earlier this term to talk about bees. We learnt that if a hive needs a new queen, the bee’s feed royal jelly to an egg and that egg produces a queen bee! Very interesting indeed! Thanks Clinton and Breda!

Paralympian Visit – Bryce Alman
“Whoo hoo!! Go Aussies!” We’re at the Olympics! Actually we’re in the classroom. But Bryce Alman, the Paralympic rugby player (also known as murderball) came to visit SKPS on Thursday the 30th of August. Bryce explained some stuff about his experiences in the Paralympics. He showed us some of his medals medals. Some of the students got to feel a real Paralympic medal, it was a fantastic experience to meet a real life Paralympic athlete.

Author Visit – Morris Glietzman
Morris Glietzman came to our school this term to talk about his life as a writer. He told us about how he became a writer, life as a kid and as most importantly the secret to starting a story. The secret is to start your story with a problem, this grabs the readers attention and makes the story exciting!
