The Senior Unit

You can pretty much smell the end of the year. its just that close.Here is a couple things you should know... iPads - next steps This Friday, the student iPads will need to be left at school so that they can be prepared for the following year (be it wiped clean for student purchase or setup for future use as a shared device). A letter should of been received today as to the exact process that will take place. If there are any photos or files on the iPads that the students would like to make sure they keep, we would encourage them to Airdrop, download or email themselves those files while at home over the next couple nights. Year 6 Celebration -  With the current impacts and regulations in place due to Covid19, events to celebrate the graduating students will be restricted to the End of Year Service. The plan at the moment, is that there will be 2 seats available per graduating student for parents to reserve through online registration. More information will come out shortly. Spelling

Sneaking closer and closer to the end of the game that has been 2020. What a cruel blow last weeks camp cancellation was. When you put it in perspective, we live in a very lucky country and an even luckier state where we haven't had the loss of life and frustration of being in full lock downs for weeks and or months at a time. Here's some bits and pieces so you are in the know... Spelling - List 30 Itz bak, finnaly wee cann hav sum normalitie inn ow weakly timtabel.

The Exhibition is the culmination of the students' time and learnings in the PYP. It is a celebration of their learning journey and a way to see how far they have come as inquirers. This year, the exhibits are all online which has provided more opportunities for students to develop and present their IT skills.   To begin we would like you to watch this short clip that introduces the Sharing the Planet exhibits for 2020.   https://youtu.be/9SBT17Qr0e4   There are 10 exhibits this year based on a variety of global issues. To access these, use the link below. That will open a landing page in which you have access to all student inquiries.    https://immanuelexhibition2020.mystrikingly.com/   Each group has used Padlet or a website to present. On those platforms they have also included feedback forms. If you are able to provide constructive or positive feedback, it would be greatly appreciated.

  This week is all about... Wednesday is still the planned day for release. Due to the odd year we have had, our Exhhibit will be presented online. A link will be sent out on Wednesday so that you can see and engage in what the Year 6 students have inquired into. Camp One week to go. Later this week a 'What to bring' note will be sent via email. Students will also have access to a copy on their iPads. Behaviours - can you please have a discussion with students about appropriate behaviours prior to camp. Camps are an enjoyable opportunity for students to have experiences outside the school grounds. With this in mind, it is important that the school feels confident and comfortable in taking students out of the school site, knowing that they will follow instructions and meet behaviour expectations.  Due to some recent behaviour trends, we feel it is important that students were made aware of this and that if the school is not satisfied by behaviours, students will be sent home fr

Exhibition is due to be completed in 6 school days. That’s right, 6 school days. That is completed by the end of next Tuesday, ready to be presented and released to the masses on Wednesday (everything going to plan that is). Camp: Camp is coming up in week 6. We are still looking for a parent volunteer with all the training to come along. Wednesday 18th - 20th November are the dates. Would love to hear from anyone who thinks they might be able to come along. Parent Notes: If a student is unable to wear the right uniform or has an injury, please let us know by writing a note or email or speaking to us in person so that we have an understanding of what is happening.
