TERM 4

WEEK 8

Greetings.

The end of the 2017 school year is al-

most here. This term has been quite

busy, yet there is more to come.

It has been wonderful seeing our

students in uniform everyday. A big

thankyou to family for helping your

children with this. Today, a visitor who has not been in

Woorabinda for a few years, commented about how strong

and proud our students are. She particularly noticed how

smart everyone looked in the school uniform.

Congratulations Woorabinda State School!

Please remind students that bullying is not tolerated in

Woorabinda State School. Strong and smart Woorabinda

people treat each other kindly in words and actions.

Have a great last two weeks.

Cheers

Term 4

Year 4/5 Class Hello Parents & Guardians,

During this term, the 4/5 students have been working on

creating a storyboard for English and have now moved onto

learning about the genre of historical recounts in

literature. The 4/5 students have been focussing on

shapes, time and money in Mathematics and have started

to create Christmas Art for the classroom.

We are hoping to see many of you at Night School on

Tuesday 5th December.

Wishing everyone a happy and safe Christmas and New

Year.

See you all in 2018.

Kind regards,

Chloe Sutton.

Focus on Year 3

Hi to parents, grandparents and carers,

This term has been an explosion of learning for both the Year 3

students and myself! In class, we have been focusing on cooperative

learning and being responsible for our own behaviour. Most students

have been joining in Fun Friday activities each week, which is

awesome to see!

In English, we have been examining Australian poetry. We have been

looking closely at how poets use different language features and

devices to create imagery and change the mood of poems. For their

assessment, students adapted a familiar poem in order to create and

present their own poem. I am very proud of the students’ efforts!

In Mathematics, we have been exploring money. We have been

learning to count collections of coins and notes and looking at

strategies for counting

out change for simple

transactions.

We only have a few weeks

left so please encourage

your child to come to

school every day and give

their best effort. I would

love to see you all at

Night School in Week 10

– the students and I are

very proud of their

achievements this term!

Best wishes,

Miss Mac (Georgia)
