Week 2

Five Maroon had a great week in Week 2 and are off to a great start for Week 3.

Last week we focused on Measurement in Mathematics, we looked at perimeter, area and briefly, volume. We are still working on persuasive texts before our NAPLAN tests next week.

We farewelled our Bali unit with some excellent travel brochures. Our next HSIE unit is Rainforests.

We are excited to start our Creative Arts Unit called 'Shovels, Picks and Pans', this unit looks at Australian artists such as Sidney Nolan.

It was great to see so many parents and relatives in our classroom on Thursday for Catholic Schools Week. The children really enjoyed sharing their work with you. There will be photos of our classroom walls posted in the next week.

You may have noticed some local celebrities in this week's Maitland Mercury and Newcastle Herald. 5 Maroon were promoting technology in our new library and Lewis was mentioned in the Newcastle Herald for his sporting talent.

Our class award winners were Isabella (Excellent response in Religion and taking pride in her work), Emily D (Beautifully presented work and taking pride in all she does), Jessica (Being a helpful young lady and trying her best to be a respectful member of 5 Maroon). Dylan was Student of the Week. Brock was awarded the Principal's Award and Lewis received an award for participating in a Rugby League event. Here are our award winners hamming it up for the camera. Congratulations and well done on your efforts this week, you should be very proud.






Have a lovely week.

Love 5M
