WEEK 25 NEWS Primary | Secondary | Whole School

WORLD BOOK DAY World Book Day was an exciting day for students across the school with special workshops panned with visiting UK Author, Stan Cullimore www.stancullimore.com, along with two published Romanian authors, Ms Carmen Tiderle and our very own Ms Claudia Marinescu. The studnets all had the chance to dress up as their favourite story book characters and even the teacher got in on the act. There were writing workshops, spell-a-thons, write-a0thons, and much, much more. Thank you to the PTF and staff for arranging such a colourful day for all our students, teachers, and parents to enjoy.

Our Sporting Lives - Year 3 Romanian Non-Natives

The Year 3 non-native Romanian students have been learning about how important it is for our bodies to exercise and to eat healthy food. The students were very involved in the topic and very serious about what we should or shouldn't eat. As a group, they sorted out the healthy food and spelled it in Romanian and were very happy to plan their own healthy meal as well.
