Wow! Welcome Back and what a first week at the Lakes. We were extremely excited this week as we welcomed 90 students into 5/6 this year. There were some familiar faces and there were a number of nervous faces amongst the high number of new students that joined our growing school. The anxious faces soon turned to smiling faces as students settled very quickly and meet their 5/6 teachers who are Renee Short, Cameron Black, Fiona Tarry, Michelle Smith and Robyn Packett.
The focus of week 1 was to get settled and make new friends. This was very successful. We also had lots of sports practice but lost some time due to the very welcome rain! Our first task was to get to know our home group and we made All About Me posters. The 5/6 team also look extensively at the schools values which are Honesty, Belonging, Personal Best and Respect. From the schools values students were asked to bring in personal items that represent these items. We then made four values museums of these values and they look fantastic!
Here's looking to week 2 where we get stuck into our program and we will be exposed to subjects like Home Economics, Technology, Performing Arts Dance, Drama and Instrumental Music.

I must have been asleep when I lodged this comment. I am sorry for spelling great incorrectly. I meant to write How long before the other teams catch up? What did I learn from this?
Make sure that in future I carefully proof read my comments.
...and have a quick power nap before commenting on blogs...lol
