Learning at home
During the Learning at Home, Learning at School Phase, we engaged with the class through SeeSaw. We posted pictures and videos of our learning at home. It was great to see so many people active online and working so hard at home.
STEM
Through the study of living things in Science, we are creating a diorama of a sustainable garden for FVPS. We have researched different aspects and factors that contribute to a sustainable garden. After drawing their plans, the groups have completed a model of their sustainable garden.
Police Visit
This term, Police officer Matt came to visit the students of Fairvale to talk about cyber safety and cyber bullying. Officer Matt gave us really great tips on how to stay safe online and treat our friends. We really enjoyed having Officer Matt in our classroom.
