Year 1 Excursion To Caboolture Historical Centre
This Semester in HASS we have been learning about the recent past, the present and the near future within the contexts of the student's own world. Students have been exploring changes that occur over time in relation to themselves, their own families and places. At the Caboolture Historical Centre we learnt about Australian history and in particular the history of the local area. We completed a wide range of activities including re-enactments, assisting with washing duties in the old time laundry, learning about bush rangers, watching the blacksmith, panning for gems and riding in a train. We also had some time in the afternoon to explore the village and some of the students' highlights were the school, hospital and the police station.





Year 4 Big Bang Incursion
Linking to their classroom learning about forces, Year 4 had an exciting experience at the "Big Bang" incursion today.
Year 5 Camp Currimundi
The Year 5s had an amazing time on camp at Currimundi this week. We all stepped outside our comfort zones and showed what true bravery means. Working together was the key to our success. The food was also fantastic, as you can tell from the following quotes…
“This food is the best I’ve ever had outside of home.”
“My Mum’s lasagne is the best but this is almost as good.”
“50/10 for the food”
Question: “What have you loved about camp?” Answer: “The food.”
Some favourite moments of camp …
Let’s give a shout out to camp Currimundi, the most fun camp in the world. You can face your fears, have an amazing time and the most important thing of all, have an adventure. Some of the activities you can do are canoeing, pool games, high ropes, giant swing and catapults. Tapasya
Hi my name is Sophie and camp was amazing. The greatest activity was the giant swing. I thought I would never do it because of my fear of heights. When I saw lots of people going to the top I really wanted to try and when it was my go I went to the top. People were saying to look down and I did. Now I don’t have a fear of heights, I want to go back again!

Day for Daniel
We remember Daniel a 12 year student who was catching a bus near his home to a shopping centre on the Sunshine Coast, was taken by an adult and never returned. We remember Daniel so we can teach children how to keep themselves safe in all situations.
