Olympic Finale for the Middle Syndicate



Lining up in our countries dressed in the colours of their flag! Our teams were made up of children from across the Syndicate. We made new friends today! Mrs Trembath was so proud of everyone and how they participated upholding the Olympic Values of Friendship, Excellence and Respect. 






It was a beautiful day and we had lots of games and sports to try around the playground and in the hall. We used hurdles, balloons, potatoes, horses, rockets, balls, frisbees which just goes to show you can make a game out of just about anything! 

I challenge you to make up some games at home and have a Family Olympics!!

Our Outdoor Classroom

Research shows 20 minutes in nature a day is enough to boost our vitality and well being. Richard Ryan, professor of psychology, psychiatry, and education at the University of Rochester, in New York, said: "Nature is fuel for the soul". And children's learning and love for the environment can benefit too. 

Today Room 20, Mrs Daniel and Mrs Medland,went exploring in our native bush walk, as part of of our Enviro Schools programme


. We wrote recounts about our outdoor adventure.
