This week your child’s teacher will send, via email, the Term 2 overview.  This document outlines all of the curriculum being taught in Term 2 and provides the timing of assessment tasks.  Please take the time to read this document as it provides a window into your child’s learning at school.  When you are aware of the curriculum, you are able to be actively involved in your child's education and development, reinforce important concepts at home, identify any academic struggles early on, and communicate more effectively with teachers. Informed and engaged parents are better equipped to support their child's academic success and overall well-being.

Cross Country

Despite our best efforts, the weather and time were against us to hold this event in its normal form.  Instead, students took part in a ‘beep test’ – this test, designed to measure endurance, was used to identify those children who were most likely to meet the times required to be selected for the district trials.  Fernbrooke sent thirty-two students to try out for the Met West team.  The children are to be congratulated for how well they represented Fernbrooke State School on the day.  Extra congratulations go to Aria, Braxton and Lachlan, who were selected for the Met West team.

Gala Sports

If your child has been selected to represent the school in a Gala Team, you will have received a note with the details of these days and an invoice via email to cover the cost of the bus.  The gala days are:  Friday, May 30^th, Friday June 6^th and Friday, June 13^th.  The children will be accompanied by staff from the school and will travel by bus to the relevant sports field. Please ensure that your child is wearing their uniform and have a hat and water bottle for these three days.
