Wilkins

Dear Wilkins families and friends,

We can't believe that it is the beginning of Term 4 already, where has the year gone?! This week, we have welcomed some new families to the Wilkins room and our existing children have been very kind and helpful as they settle in to the classroom environment.

This week, we have begun our cross year level investigation into water and its many uses. We will be exploring the science behind water with the Mead and Chapple children. On Tuesday Mr Charlwood shared a water story with us and we then started to look at different items and whether they sink or float. Please continue to bring in any water photos that your children can share as we continue this exploration. Feel free to email them to us if this is easier at jcatt@staff.pac.edu.au

Thursday we all ventured up to the oval with the rest of the ELC and Prep classes to join in our Sports Day! Thank goodness the sun was shining for us and the children were able to get into the spirit and join in the many different activities. Thank you to all our family helpers that came in to support us and cheer on our little athletes.


We look forward to a wonderful term ahead.


Best wishes,
The Wilkins Team
