While the end of Term 3 seems a long time ago now, it was wonderful to celebrate the coming of Kambarang/Maungeran and Spring, with song, dance and games.  A heartfelt thanks to our “Bush Band” and to those who joined us for the energetic Galopede.

Class 1 have begun this term with Mathematics – building on our experience of the four processes and developing an imagination for the invisible third number.  Every day the bag of Murgatroyd delivers challenges to be accepted, whereby we move and meet one another.  These are then pegged up on our class clothesline.

Examples of our Kid Writing efforts

We welcome Susanne Haussmann from Stuttgart, Germany and thank her for helping us create elements of our Advent Calendar in anticipation of December 1.  We hope that she enjoys her time in the South West and that memories from this time will inspire her in her own future teachings.

Thank you also to Bruce, the Bush School Staff and to all the volunteers who have helped to coordinate the Nowanup camp and catering.  Class 1 have been counting down the number of sleeps until camp (and to Donnie’s birthday!).

Lastly, our “hungry” and very talented hands have fashioned some beautiful hanging ornaments from our experiments with wet felting.  Be sure to come and have a look.  And I am proud to tell you that all of our recorders now have a home.
