DSKI Xmas Market Tomorrow!

The holidays are only a day away and the little elves in Grade 2 have been busy getting ready for DSKI's Christmas Market and their musical performance too!

Please come out and support a good cause as all of the profits from our sales will be donated to charity.

The students have been busier than Santa and his elves on Christmas Eve as they worked hard to create cute reindeer crafts to go with some delicious Reindeer Poo!!






The students will be working in shifts at the Grade 2 Booth taking turns to sell our Reindeer Poo and decorations. When they are not scheduled at the booth, they are free to visit other shops together with their parents. Please check the schedule below and make sure that they show up on time for their work shift!

They will also be performing my personal favourite Christmas carol, Carol of the Bells! Despite some issues with synchronizing their tempo early on, as well as overcoming the challenges of learning how to play a new instrument, they are finally ready to perform for an audience!

Then after a visit from a special visitor dressed in red and white, it will be time to pack up and get ready to go home around 1pm.

Please enjoy the market and our performance tomorrow, and of course have a wonderful winter holiday with your family.

Highlights from the Nadahama Science Square Excursion

Last Wednesday, Grades 1 and 2 went on an excursion to Nadahama Science Square as part of our unit on inventions. Before entering the Science Square, they enjoyed a nice picnic lunch out under the autumn leaves. Those who ate quickly also had some time to run around and played tag before heading inside. Once inside, we watched a short video on how coal is burned to create electricity, and how iron is melted down to create many different metallic objects.

Then we had some time to check out how different things work! Check it out below!


Also, a reminder that we are still collecting things for our inventions unit so please send in some recyclables and broken items for us to take a look at and to inspire our curiosity.

Swimming Term 2

Please also note that the term schedule will be changing from next Monday, December 9th so Grades 1 and 2 will be going swimming on Mondays until March 16th. So don't forget to pack your swim gear next Monday!
