End of Term 2 Insider
Year 5 – What an Exciting End to Term 2!
It has been a fantastic end to Term 2 in Year 5, packed with rich learning experiences, energetic events, and memorable moments.
In English, students developed excellent persuasive writing skills, crafting strong arguments on a range of topics. In Mathematics, we explored the world of fractions, decimals, and percentages, building confidence through practical activities and real-world connections.
Science brought lots of excitement as we investigated the states of matter through engaging and interactive experiments. In HASS, we travelled back in time to the Australian Gold Rush, culminating in our wonderful Living Wax Museum, where students confidently portrayed historical figures from the era — a true highlight!
In Visual Art, we explored Indigenous art styles, and in Technology, students used Scratch to create interactive presentations linked to our Gold Rush inquiry. In Health, we focused on building positive health habits and making informed choices.
We also kept active with our Cross Country and Sports Carnival, where students showed great determination, team spirit, and enthusiasm.
It has been a big, brilliant term of learning and achievement. We are so proud of the students’ efforts and can’t wait to see what Term 3 brings!
