In Class One we have just started an Indigenous Stories Main Lesson which is full of wonderful tales from the Australian bush and the Dreamtime.

This main lesson is supported by all the hands on experience, Nyoongar language, story and song of bush school days.

We will be hearing stories about the people of long ago when the world was being made; stories of kangaroo, owl, emu, kingfisher, crow and of course the rainbow serpent.

After hearing, retelling, dramatizing and drawing about the stories we write full sentences in our Main Lesson books using lower case and capital letters and full stops.

Many thanks to the skilled crafty parents who are helping to crochet our knitted squares together into a class blanket for our story chair. 

In craft we made some threaded felt bracelets of every colour which we have been wearing around.  Keep an eye out for them!

Now we are stitching spring birds with their baby birds.  We are using dolphin stitch, blanket stitch and adding different types of buttons and ribbons to test all our fantastic stitching skills!

We are noticing  with wonder that the days are becoming longer and the blossoms and flowers are starting  to emerge  around our beautiful school.
