This term in 5 Goolagong has been full of creativity, learning, and collaboration. One of the highlights was reading the novel Once, which all students thoroughly enjoyed. The story sparked thoughtful discussions, strengthened comprehension skills, and encouraged many children to reflect on themes of resilience and hope. In Drama, students enthusiastically role-played different scenarios, building confidence in performance and learning how to express themselves clearly in front of their peers. In Mathematics, the class brought together their learning in a fractions project where they designed paddocks for a farmer and calculated the fencing needed, applying their skills to a real-world context. In writing, they produced engaging articles on the dangers of artificial intelligence, which showcased not only their research and persuasive writing skills but also their ability to think critically about modern issues.
