What an exciting day at our Early Learning Centre on Wednesday 23, July. We had the privilege of welcoming Wild Rangers, who brought the wonders of Australian wildlife right to our doorstep.
The students had an incredible time getting up close and personal with some amazing animals, including a snake, a lizard, a crocodile, and a possum! The smiles and laughter filled the room as they learned about these fascinating creatures.
A huge thank you to Wild Rangers for making this such a memorable experience for our little ones!
This week, our primary students had the incredible opportunity to participate in an engaging Health and Physical Education (HPE) lesson with Coach Keira from QLD AFL. The session centred around AFL Auskick, a fantastic program designed to introduce young students to the fundamentals of Australian Rules Football.
Coach Keira brought her passion and expertise, teaching the students the essential skills of kicking a ball through fun and interactive games. Her contagious enthusiasm inspired the children and encouraged them to participate fully. The students quickly embraced the challenges, showcasing their teamwork and sportsmanship throughout the activities.
Laughter and excitement filled the air as the children learned to work together, hone their skills, and enjoy the game. It was a memorable learning experience that taught them the basics of AFL and fostered a spirit of camaraderie and joy.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to Coach Keira for her dedication and energy, making this HPE lesson a remarkable event for our students. We look forward to more opportunities that promote physical fitness and teamwork in the future!
In Year 1, our students embrace learning through diverse methods in maths and English. From hands-on activities to collaborative games, each child discovers their unique strengths. We celebrate their progress and enthusiasm, fostering a love for learning that inspires curiosity and creativity. It's exciting to see their growth every day!
Our Ad Astra students were invited to participate in the upcoming Queensland State Resource Day at Anglican Church Grammar School (Churchie). This enriching excursion aimed to support their learning and prepare them for the Term 3 Ad Astra program.
This was a fantastic opportunity for our students to deepen their understanding of the Qualifying Problem: Agricultural Industry.
Our students learnt
- Insights into the agricultural industry from an Australian perspective
- A revision of the Six-Step Model
- Teamwork strategies for success
- An opportunity to tackle a simplified practice future scene
This experience will help our students sharpen their problem-solving skills and grow as learners. Congratulations to our Ad Astra Students for their participation in this valuable experience.
During the holidays, our fantastic Year 5 & 6 Rugby team had an incredible opportunity after being scouted at a recent tournament. The NRL invited our players to attend a thrilling Titans game, where they enjoyed the action and had the unique chance to play against another team during half-time! This unforgettable experience was made even better with the support of our dedicated Sports Director and committed rugby coach. Congratulations to our players for their amazing attitudes, fantastic team spirit, and impressive skills! Thank you, NRL and Titans, for this memorable opportunity!
This Term 3, our students are diving deep into God's Way. In Week 1 of Chapel, we explored how Jesus is the missing piece to our lives' puzzles, emphasising His significance in our journey. This week, we focused on the vital roles of Jesus and the Holy Spirit in helping us manage our emotions. Our discussions highlight how their guidance empowers us to embody the fruits of the Spirit, such as love, joy, and peace. We are excited to see how these lessons transform our students' hearts and lives, fostering spiritual growth and emotional resilience! Also a big welcome to our Pre-Prep students from ELC who are now joining our chapels every Thursday.
