Woombye students get up close to insects
AS a culmination of their study of insects and minibeasts this term, Woombye State School Year 1 children visited Bilai Environmental Centre to look at insects in their natural environs.
The highlight of their excursion was the trek along the boardwalk, where they stopped at crab city to feed the red-clawed nippers.
THE Year 6 children are in the throes of being authors, in writing their own short stories. With class teachers and teacher librarian’s assistance, these budding writers have been researching author styles, picture books and illustrator’s techniques: pencil, pastel, print, paint, collage in order to broaden their genre. It is envisaged the finished stories, once published will be presented to the age groups for which they were written.
THE life education van is in residence for a week, during which time its focus for classes is on nutrition, digestion, healthy foods and the functions of our organs.
CONGRATULATIONS to the following students who will now represent the Sunshine Coast Region in their chosen sport: Allen Ledger, Lawson Peters, Tyson Sawrey, Nick Allen-Waters, Kelly Baxter, Jessica McMahon, Lizzie Atkinson and Brooke Dryden for Regional Cross Country. Regional Soccer: Tyson Sawrey, Elliott Peters. Gymnastics: Traci Baxter. We wish these children success in their competition.
