Maths activities
October 3, 2019
Today we did Maths stations in Prefab 9! The boys spent 10 minutes at each station doing various maths activities. They made patterns with beads, patterns on peg boards, played a dice game with cubes, made maths jigsaws and played a counting game on the interactive whiteboard. The boys had great fun doing these hands on activities.

Mother Nature, Did you Sneeze?
September 30, 2019
We have really enjoyed falling into learning this September! We’ve learned that during Autumn, leaves change colour and fall, animals hibernate, fruit and vegetables are harvested and birds migrate to warmer countries.
We also read the poem ‘Mother Nature, Did you Sneeze?’ by Pat Cook and painted our very own Autumn trees using our handprints, paint and cotton buds. Here is a little peak at some of the masterpieces!
