                        Foundation 2026 -Term 2

It’s going to be hard to top Term 1 when we were Grade of the Term! But we are looking forward to more fun and lots more learning! This term.

LIBRARY BAGS/ART SMOCKS:- If you have not supplied a named Art smock or Library bag, could you please do so. We still have a number of students without one.

TIMETABLE:- Please ensure on the day your child has PE that they have suitable uniform for active play ie. Runners.

Tuesdays- STEM and ART, Thursday – AUSLAN, Friday- PE (PMP)

PROGRAMS:- We have a strong focus in Term 2 on embedding routines. "Respectful Relationships" program will continue where students learn personal skills and explore concepts through games and activities,

Literacy-Students will continue to be exposed to phonological awareness and letter identification through the Phonics Plus program. We will be writing lots more this term!

Numeracy focus will be on Number and Shape.

Our Core Curriculum focus we will be exploring ‘Changes over time’ which will involve introducing students to the idea that history is all around us and can be recorded and remembered in many ways. Students explore how people share and keep stories from the past using photographs, artefacts, books, oral storytelling, digital media, and museums. They learn that different people may remember events in different ways and that objects and personal items can help us understand and connect with those memories.

Through hands-on investigations, students begin to understand how timelines show change over time, how transport has evolved, and how First Nations peoples share their history through traditional stories, art, and cultural items such as bark and dugout canoes.

Special events:

Gumbuya World Incursion

House Cross Country

Mothers Day stall

And lots more!

Please remember to sign up for the school newsletter online and label everything.

We are looking forward to sharing lots of fun and learning and are  lucky to continue to have Sandy as a regular Aide in our classroom this year.

Kind Regards

Mrs Williamson
