Linton and the AFL State Knockout

This week, Linton represented 6S and Camden South P.S at the AFL State Knockout. We are very pleased as a class and school to have such a talented AFL player. We spoke with Linton to find out his thoughts on the game and the following paragraph will highlight these thoughts.

'The game was tough and the wind made it difficult to kick straight. The players on the other team were very fast but I could still tackle them all. I'm really proud of all the boys effort and I'm looking forward to the next time we play".

Well done, Linton!

The Giant Turtle Maya





Last week I was translating my favourite book from Spanish to English with the help of my parents, my knowledge and Google translate, it is called La Tortuga Gigante (The Giant Turtle). It is about a sick man going to the rainforest to get better. He sees a turtle that is being attacked by a huge tiger so the man saves the turtle and heals him. But he gets sicker, so the turtle feeds the man and gives him water. So after a while the turtle carries the man and his things back to his town, the man gets the medicine needed and gets better. At the end of the story they remain friends and the man sees the turtle every day at the zoo where the turtle lives.
Now apparently Mr.Seeney can speak Spanish!

Olympics Assignment

Hi everyone,

I just want to clear up a few things relating to the Olympics assignment.
The students only need to create one activity. The seven activities relate to the overall amount we need as a class to run the competition.

I'm looking forward to seeing what the students come up with.

Also, keep your eye on this site. Students are going to start blogging about work they are doing in class!

Canberra

Good morning, everybody!

Canberra was an amazing trip and one that I'm sure has created a lot of memories for the students.

Apart from putting up with my jokes for three days, which on most occasions resulted in no laughs at all, the students expereineced a lot of fun activities.

The war memorial was amazing. Linton, Hayden, Corey and Lawrence were all really impressed with the large plane displays.

The snow was definitely the most fun. Earlier on the bus trip, I discovered that there was a plot for everyone in 6S to attack me with snowballs. I managed to recruit the majority of the class back onto my side. A special mention to Dilara, Rebecca, Natalia, Chloe and Gabriel for being the first to defend me.

As much as I tried to recruit everyone back to my side, Elizabeth, Jonah, Brodie, Micaela, Indyana and James still got a few good shots at me with their snow balls. I'm happy to call that one a draw.

The view from the chairlift to the top of the mountain was incredible. I shared the chairlift with Dylan, Natalie and William who were all very cool with the heights that we got to. Well done to you all for being so brave!

Maya and William did a great job at the Australian Electoral Commision. They knew so much  about the voting process and really took a lot of knowledge away from the experience.

Now it is time for the students to rest and relax in the holidays. See you next term.

p.s don't worry if you missed the jokes. I will tell you them all in term 3!
