Prep GM Blog Learning together at St Richard's Primary School 

We have been learning to count to twenty.

Today we had a hopping good time with our Buddies. We worked together to create Easter Baskets in preparation for the Easter Bunny’s visit over the holidays.  Check out our great creations.

What a busy week.  We celebrated St. Patrick’s Day with a touch of green.

The Preps began our Open Morning with Christian Meditation.

 We finished the week with the Preps presenting Palm Sunday in the first of the Easter week assemblies.

In Maths this week we have been looking at a ‘half’.  We made fairy bread and cut it in half.  We have also been experimenting with balance scales.  We made scales and had fun talking about what is ‘heavier’ and what is ‘lighter’.

Congratulations to Yasmyn and her family on the arrival of Aleisha.

Congratulations to Lucy and her family on the arrival of Piper.

We had our first reward day for reaching our ‘Superbee’ target.  We enjoyed an electronic afternoon.

The Preps, Grade 1’s and Grade 2’s had a lovely session run by Mrs. Meyer on Prayer. We also learnt about the colours used in the Church at different times of the year.

We welcomed Eva and her dog Marley to St. Richard’s. Eva taught us about the safe way to approach a dog and what to do if you are approached by an angry dog.

This week we will be looking at the tricky vowel sounds.  We are starting to put sounds together to make words.  Check out this fun clip.

We had great fun learning circus skills.
