Year 1/2 attended a session in the Healthy Harold van last week where the students learned about eating well, looking after our bodies and doing exercise to stay fir and healthy. They learned where all the important organs are located in our bodies, and talked about how to keep our heart and lungs and skin safe.

Year 3/4/5

What a busy term we have had! I think everyone is looking forward to a well earned break. Over term one year 3 and 5 tackled NAPLAN. It was a long two weeks with lots of timetable changes and a lot of amazing work and effort put in by all the children. 

Some of our favourite moments from term one include:

  • Zoo mobile
  • Whole school sport
  • PE with year 6
  • Dance with Miss Laura
  • Science
  • Energisers and movement breaks
  • Playing Kahoot
  • Reading then watching the BFG
  • NAPLAN

As we wind down for the holidays we have been learning all about Easter and why it is such a special celebration. We would like to wish everyone a Happy Easter.

As we come closer to the end of term one, we sadly say goodbye to one of our favourite teaching support staff, Miss Charlotte Browne. She has supported many students of SFX, especially year 6 Yibaay students. Yibbay would like to wish you all the best of luck on your journey to Townsville QLD, and hope to see you back for visit.

Year_6_Science.jpgYear 6 have also been involved in the Good to great schools science program. Lake SFX Yibaay (Year 6) students racing to get their experiment under way.
Today students learnt about Micro-organisms using tank water. Studnets analysed, observed and assessed the water. What fun!
