What a wonderful fortnight we've had in the middle primary class!

We welcomed Miss Hayley Spencer to our class on Monday. She has joined us for her final practical teaching experience prior to finishing her education degree at the end of this year.  Hayley's sunny and caring personality have made her very popular amongst our children and we love having her with us.  Hayley will spend Weeks 6 and 7 in the middle primary class and then return in Term 4.

Book week and the Colour Run were exciting for our children.  It was fantastic to see everyone dressed up as their favourite characters.  The Colour Run was a wonderful event again too.  Children loved the vibrant colours and the joy of running the cross country at Spring Bay Mill... and the adults did too!

Our grade 3's have spent some time at the community hub with Steve, Pia, Craig (our local police officer) and Mrs Sparshott, working hard on the new nature play boardwalk.  Students have gained many new skills in woodwork and teamwork, with progress coming along nicely!

Throughout their learning, students have been given many opportunities to share feedback woth each other.  During our handwriting/phonics sessions, we continue to discuss the benefits of giving and receiving:

- Positive peer feedback

- Constructive peer feedback.

Students understand the importance of delivering their thoughts in a kind and respectful manner, sharing positive ideas and continually seeking ways to improve their own learning outcomes.  As a result, students are proud of their work and share their learning with joy and wonderfully positive attitudes.

Well done Middle Primary, on a fantastic fortnight of learning!
