St Kent's Day

Today 52 students from St Kents came to our school and they organised a range of activities/sports for us to do. 

We also had sausage sizzle and icing biscuits that we made for lunch.

We had lots of fun and we would like to thank all the St Kents students for all their time and effort. 

School Athletics

Today was school athletics day and we all tried our best to run as fast as we can.

It was important to run straight so that we don't bump into each other.

Try singing at home!

We learnt  some Korean words and we made this into a song.

The first word is Pizza. The next words is 'Bap' which means rice in Korean. The third words is 'Kimchi Gook' which means Kimchi stew. Lastly, it is 'Kimbap' which means sushi in Korean.

Try it at home!
