Monday 10th September 2018 Term 3 Week 8
From the Principal’s Desk
Our Year 4 students returned from Victor Harbor on Friday after three fun filled days. No doubt there are many, many stories to be told. Our Year 5 students have arrived safely in Narrabeen and are enjoying their first full day of activities. It won’t be too long until our Year 3 and Year 6 excursions head off in the final
week of this term.
Next Monday evening we have our second P&C Meeting for the term. At this meeting we will outline the selection processes for the 2019 School Captain. Following this meeting the
processes will be sent home.
We have had two students accepted into the Aurora Virtual Opportunity Class - Eva Vigar and Esther Wenham. Both girls will commence some taster online lessons with the peers next term in preparation for the main focus in 2018. The focus will be on STEM lessons that
extend their current learning. A wonderful opportunity for our two students.
I continue to be amazed at the high standard of quality learning that students come to show me, it fills me with a great sense of pride. I know from my chats with the students that they are also very proud of their learning and only too happy to explain what they did and why it is
important .
Have a wonderful week of learning!

On Friday we are going to spend 10 or so

kids could please bring some gloves.
Thank you
On Wednesday 5th September,
Year 4 embarked on an 8 hour bus
trip to Victor Harbor for their
excursion. They saw penguins on
Granite Island, went on a horse
drawn tram, learnt about whales
and visited the Urimbirra Wildlife
Park.
On Friday we returned home,
exhausted after a jam packed, fun
filled couple of days.

2S and 1D – Project-based learning
We started by investigating the
amount of fruit scraps going to waste
every day in our own classes.
Then we asked the rest of the school
as well.
We discovered that at MSPS we have
SO many fruit scraps!
We then used
gloves and sorted the scraps.
A worm farm!
Did you know that all of our fruit
scraps currently go in to land fill?!
We decided that we needed to
work out a better way to use our
fruit scraps so that there isn’t so
much going to waste.
We did some research and
discovered that there was a great
solution right in front of us that
would work for our school……
A worm farm!
We are now planning to present
our idea to the P&C using
videos, letters and posters we
have created.
We are excited and hopeful
that our school will have a worm
farm soon and our fruit scraps
won’t be wasted!
On Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, 2S and 1D have been working
together on a project called Scrapping the Scraps.
