On Friday the 7 April, students are invited to wear orange to help us celebrate Harmony Day.
Our K-2 Percussion Group have had a lot of fun meeting at lunchtimes each Tuesday. The students have had the
opportunity to use a wide range of percussion instruments and have prepared a small item to perform at our
Harmony Day Celebrations next week. Next term we will move onto the ukulele.

Changes to Making payments
This term 3-6D has started using the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden cooking program. So far we’ve had fun cooking and eating Vietnamese Rice Paper Rolls, Hummus with Wheat Tortillas, Indian Flatbread with Garlic Butter and Carrot Dip with Tortillas. We’ve been putting our measuring and counting skills to good use, as well as strengthening our hands with all that kneading!
Up next for 3-6D is planting the garden beds with vegetables and herbs that we’ll harvest for use in future cooking. We’ve already started with our broad beans – we’ve seen roots come through, and are eagerly awaiting the sprouting of the stem!
We are putting the call out to any Wollondilly families that could help us out with our kitchen garden - if you have your own seedlings that you’d be willing to donate for planting, or have a hose with fittings (or any other garden– related equipment) that you no longer need, please get in touch with Ms Jenny Davis through the school office.
Mrs Jenny Davis
