It has been a fun-filled year, full of exciting topics like our five senses, life in the past, light and sound, forces, structures, the Earth’s resources and fractions! We enjoyed a return to normal with events such as the sleepover and regular field trips and a daily life without masks for the first time in over 3 years!
Our final days were spent finishing up unfinished stuff from the poetry unit in language, the money unit in math, and posters, booklets or videos for conserving resources and playing some fan-favourite games of tag during PE.
Amongst all of the fun, we managed to file away and pack up all of the posters and student work from around the classroom. Leaving the walls and displays bare, ready to be filled up again by a new group of second graders as this class moves up to Grade 3. I wish all of the students and their families a wonderful summer holiday wherever they may be.
We also sadly had to say farewell to two of our close friends who have been such important members of this class for the last few years.
Amalia’s bright smile and caring personality has helped teach the rest of the student about how to be caring and accepting of others. Evah’s friendly and out-going personality helped her get along with everyone and her presence in class will be missed. We wish both girls and their families all the best in their next adventures abroad, wherever life takes them.
We also had to say goodbye to Ms Ida, who has been together with this group of students for the past few years and we wish her all the best in her next adventure!
Thank you to all of the families for your support and understanding this year! I truly enjoyed our year together and look forward to seeing what this group of students can go to accomplish in the years ahead. Have a wonderful summer together with your children. As a teacher I get to “borrow” your children for a year, and then return them at the end with a bit more knowledge and skills than they began with at the start of the year.
