Accepting people for who they are is something we should all do. 5/6Y have been learning in Religion how not to discriminate and to follow in the path of Jesus. In English they are reading a narrative called Nevermoor. It is about a young girl, Morrigan, who is born on Eventide. Being born on Eventide brings her bad luck and she is blamed for disasters, even a hail storm that ruined a gazebo! An Eventide leads to Morrigan's inevitable death, but she gets whisked away from a magical man who saves her from her doom. Soon 5/6 will write their own narrative.

Prices and discounts, something everyone looks at and reads is what they have been working out in Maths. Looking at prices and taking off percentage amounts is tricky but they are learning this skill well. Energy is something we use every day but don’t pay much attention to. In Science 5/6Y have been exploring different types of energy, including thermal, chemical, kinetic, light, sound and electrical. Every country has it's history. A significant part of Australia’s history is British colonisation. During this time, the rights of Aboriginal people were taken from them — a truth that is important to understand and reflect upon.
