PRIMARY SCHOOL
It’s been another exciting few weeks in the
These skills are vital to managing our emotions and thriving at school so we are so glad the Year 6 buddies are there to help the little ones learn and grow (and of course they are growing in these important skills too). Our new building continues to progress. We can start to see the shape coming together now and can see the double storey aspect. We ask for your continued prayers for our Primary school and look forward to all God has in store for us. Caroline Duell Primary Deputy Principal
Primary School! Our Year 6 classes had a wonderful time on their camp to Wirraway, despite having to cut the
camp short a day due to extreme weather in the hills. Nevertheless, the camp personnel worked with us to ensure all
the children still got to ride a horse and experience as many different activities as possible. We were thrilled to hear them say how polite and respectful our children are and how much they love having Torrens Valley Christian School come to Wirraway each year. The Year 3s and 5s have completed all their NAPLAN tests. They all showed such resilience, confidence and helpfulness as we moved them across to the Village each day to complete the tests in a relatively quiet environment. Completing the tests on the laptops introduces a whole new level of complexity that we didn’t need to consider with the paper tests, but the Year 3s and 5s rose to the challenge! Well done children. Our Year 2 classes led us in our Worship Assembly last week. This was the first ‘normal’ worship assembly we have had in a long time. We had some beautiful singing, learnt how God has made each one of us in his image, and celebrated with those children who received Believe, Belong, Become Awards this fortnight. The Year 4 classes have been learning about how God designed plants and the different parts of a plant. They have been growing their own beans and looking at different fruits. Our Year 1s partnered with a Year 6 buddy to learn more about what it means to be a good friend, how to calm ourselves when we get upset and ways to solve a conflict.
