We worked collaboratively using maps to locate the major cities and place them on our map. We learnt about the human and physical features and made them with Lego and craft materials.
What a fun day we had despite it not being very Australian weather!! We did lots of activities with an Australian theme. We even had Kylie and Danni Minogue visit us. We completed our amazing Turtles with dot designs . We tasted smoothies and learnt some Australian slang. Finally we flew back from Australia and when we landed we had a celebration of Australian music . We even learned The Locomotion !
Wow! What a first day! The children have been amazing and have represented our school ethos in every possible way- we are very proud of them! They have aspired to achieve, by pushing themselves out of their comfort zone and into their stretch zone, by jumping from great heights onto an airbag and completing an assault course, or climbing and abseiling. They have been kind and collaborative, supporting one another to complete the challenges and to manage organising themselves. They have been open and honest, with themselves and with others, when facing challenges. They have been respectful of themselves in their decision making and respectful of others with their decision making. They have definitely welcomed new experiences and shown their super learning powers. This is what it's all about- all coming together for an amazing time with their friends on this trip- well done from a super-proud staff team! Day 1 photos
We can't believe it's day 3 already- so much fun had, and more to come before we say goodbye to Hilltop and head back to Bressingham. Here are some photos of today's activities and a final photo of our fabulous group of children. Well done, everyone- you have pushed your boundaries and found great resilience, resourcefulness, reflectiveness and reciprocity! What amazing individuals and what a fantastic team!
