Term 3 Week 7 and 8

Hello everyone

Well after all the excitement of Book Week the boys are enjoying a relatively calm and back to routine week.

There are a number of things we are working on at the moment - least of which is getting ourselves organised for ArtsPaces and Grandies day.

Grandies Day:

• Thursday 6 September
• Invitations have been taken home by the boys and hopefully given to Grandparents
• The boys are going to do a little presentation and as a result some have volunteered to bring in props for us to use.
• The presentation will only be very short and just something for the amusement of the Grandparents that come
• There will also be something in the Anzac Hall for the Grandparents before they come to the classes

Show Day Off:

• Friday 7 September is the school's Show Day and the boys will not be required to attend school on the day

Adapt to Survive:

• Is the new unit of inquiry that we have begun
• The boys did a reflection on the last unit Art Mirrors life today and we will be discussing the concepts of adaptation and change

ArtsPACes:

• Wednesday 12 September
• We have begun compiling our various pieces of art work which will be put up in the Art Room on the night.
• The boys have all created some very unique pieces which reflect their individual style and personality
• The main feature of the night will be the boys creating a piece of Andy Warhol inspired art
• The boys have all finished outlining their faces and have been experimenting with various programs on the computer to create Andy Warhol images
• A program we have used is called GIMP which is a free download which you can use at home - give it a go

Problem of the Week:

• The boys were given a new problem of the week today
• Already some boys have completed it
• Give it a go yourself and see how you go

Regards,
Nesha
