Welcome to week 8 from our school captains

Hi Carrum students and families!

Welcome back everyone! It’s your school captains Ivy and James, we can’t believe this year has gone by so fast! It’s only a few more weeks until our year sixes graduate and go into high school. We have had a few exciting and fun things happening recently. 

Our teachers would like to congratulate the lovely Miss Anderson, now Mrs Blane who was married last weekend.
She teaches our 3/4 class and takes students for tutoring.
      

Last week was our Colour Fun Run which was really cool to see everyone getting all coloured and having so much fun. We managed to raise over $32,000 and got to slime more teachers AND our principal!! Good job and a big thank you to everyone who donated!

We asked a few people in the yard what they enjoyed about the Fun Run.

“I enjoyed spraying people!” - Lizzy (1 / 2) 

“I liked having fun with my friends.” - Jack (3 / 4)

“I liked getting prizes!” - Meila (5 / 6)

 

This week, the 3/4s are starting bike-ed! It’s really important to be safe on our bikes so please be careful when we are riding to, and from school. In a few weeks, the year sixes are going on the annual year six bike ride to Chelsea Bicentennial Park! 

 

For the past couple of weeks, we have been having our Up Day! It’s been really exciting and nerve-wracking but it’s been fun! During Up Day, our year fives have presented their leadership speeches for next year. Good luck and good job to all!

 

Some of our year fours are running for marine ambassador this week! Good luck to everyone! 

 

We have one of our Junior School Council representatives writing a little something about a visit from Sonya Kilkenny! Thank you Eden! 

 

“Hi, I'm Eden and I'm here to talk to you all about Sonya Kilkenny's recent visit to the 5/6s. We are doing inquiry and our topic is Taking Action. I went around the yard and asked some year fives and year sixes about what they thought about it. Maliyah and Summer thought it was "Inspiring", Evelyn B thought it was “Interesting” and “Nice that Sonya cares about us’’. Shapi thought it was “Good”  and Lily A thought it was "Educational''

Thank you! From Eden.



Have a great weekend

 

From your school Captains,

Ivy and James. 



                       




                        


Book Week Parade

The efforts were outstanding!
 
      What a morning we had at our Book Week Parade!

                

Wizards, Witches, Where's Wally, Dog Man, Crayons, Lego, Mario, Princesses and Sports stars and so much more.. there was so much to be seen at our whole school parade. Please enjoy the photos below.

As well as the parade the classes enjoyed books and activities read by our year 5/6 students.

    

The Library has transformed into magic with the theme of this year....Book an Adventure, where book week has turned 80! The feature artist for the year, Jess McGeachin, has brilliantly captured this adventurous spirit in his artwork, which features a whimsical map filled with imaginary characters. Jess’ illustration invites young readers to embark on fantastical journeys, inspiring them to travel through the worlds that books open up. As an award-winning Australian picture book illustrator, Jess’ work encourages children to imagine, explore, and create their own adventures.  If you haven't had a look at our Library please do so.
 
The students also enjoyed a Scavengure Hunt around the school and have entered their responses, who knows there could be a PRIZE. 


                   

Thanks to Mrs Smith and Miss Remoundos for your hard work in setting up the libary with the help of some students, Eden, Taylor, Ayla, Evie S, Maisha and Lulu. We think it looks magnificent!
