Year 3 Excursion

 Kaya 3H parents, 


Tomorrow is our excursion to Ngilgi Cave. This year we have been learning about the six aboriginal seasons and how they are different to our European seasons. We have also been learning about Indigenous names for local places and plants.

To extend this learning, we are heading to Ngilgi Cave to explore the care and learn more about the indigenous cultural of the area. Mr Josh Whiteland of Koomal Dreaming will be joining us and teaching us about the local Wadandi Boodja culture.

The Year 3 classes will travel to the cave separately, with students to travel to and from Ngilgi Cave by bus. 3L will attend the morning session and 3H will attend the afternoon session. 

Students will need to wear their sports uniform and school hat. There will be no additional cost of the excursion.  

Please let us know if your child is NOT allowed to attend the excursion ASAP via email. 

Permission slips will be sent home today and are also attached to this blog if you would like to sign and send back via email.


Thanks a heap, 

Holly, Serena and Paula 😀

Week 8, Term 4

  Kaya Year 3 Parents,   I hope you have had a great Week 8.   WOW!!! What a year we have had. We are nearly there. I know that everyone is feeling tired and maybe crawling to the finishing line, but I am so proud of these kids. To say I have enjoyed teaching these children would be a complete understatement. I truly believe that the children are the real teachers, and we always have so much to learn from them. This cohort of children have taught me beyond what I ever imagined. What a privilege it has been to be their teacher this year. Some of you may or may not be aware that I will not be teaching here at OLC next year. As well as being a teacher, I am also a kinesiologist and I have decided to put down the teacher reigns next year and dive fully into my kinesiology business. The children may still see me around occasionally when I do some relief work. Seesaw I have just completed all of the “official” Seesaw tasks for this semester. Both Paula and I do hope that you

Term 4, Week 6

  Week 6, Term 4   Kaya Year 3 Parents. I hope you are all having a great week and enjoying an extra day for the weekend. Hard to believe we are at the end of week 5. The end of year is coming around so quickly. We are deep in the throes of assessment and reporting at the moment, so the children have been very busy demonstrating their skills, understanding and growth. Both Paula and I are in awe of how much all of the children have grown and evolved this year. We are so proud. It is also coming to that time of year where the children are starting to feel tired. Immune systems and resilience may not be running as high as normal and they may be finding certain things a little more challenging than they usually would. Paula and I are fully aware of this and trying to make the classroom a safe and supportive space for them in these last four weeks of school.
