Term 4 has been an absolute whirlwind as we approach the end of the Class Six’s primary school years.  Class Six have had an incredibly successful business venture through 'Lemoshi’s Lunch Bar' where the children made fresh sushi rolls to order.  On our busiest day, 65 sushi rolls were hand rolled by our kitchen team.  Sweets were also sold at lunch time supplied by the wonderful Class Six parents, having the children work quickly to add up orders and supply change to their hungry peers.  Class Six then had to count the revenue, add up the costs and then calculate their profit.  Over three very busy lunches, our profits exceeded $900!  A big thank you to everyone in the school community who bought something from 'Lemoshi’s', making it the big success it was.

We have also been studying astronomy in the classroom and the children have created beautiful posters and diorama’s to show off their knowledge about space.  Everybody should be proud of their beautiful and unique creations.  After studying the vast cosmos, we have come back to Earth (still wearing our scientist hats) to study physics and learn about magnetism and electricity.

Much to the children’s dismay, we have also begun an introduction to puberty in our health lessons.  However, the 'anonymous question box' is slowly filling up and I look forward to answering all of their questions about their bodies and growing up.

Class Six also went on their final camp this term and what a great camp it was!  The children took part in a 2-day sailing course where they were taught how to sail a 3-person, GP-14 dinghy.  There were many tears and several capsizes on the first day as the children were well and truly out of their comfort zone!  By the second day, the children were a lot more comfortable and confident and they navigated their sailing boats out in the Albany mariner.  After 3 hours of sailing the dinghy’s, we then moved onto two, bigger sailing boats.  We became the crew and had no choice but to be brave and work together.  We spent several hours sailing all around Princess Royal Harbour and into the King George Sound.  It was such an awesome experience and the children should be so proud of themselves.
