Ramsay STATE SCHOOL

Playgroup has been so much fun over the last few weeks, with Monster trucks, unicorns, animal crafts including llamas and ducks to match our letters each week, outside games, sandpit play, story time and more.

Fruit break in the warm sun on our northern playground has also been enjoyed by children and parents alike.

It is fantastic to see our pre-school aged students and our prep students participate in play-based learning activities. Play group is a free service offered by our school each week on Tuesday mornings, starting at 9am and running until 11am. This program is run alongside our Prep program with Mrs Smith and Mrs Hartog.

If you or someone you know would like to attend Playgroup please email admin@ramsayss.eq.edu.au

At Vale View State School our 1-2 class has been working on fractions in Maths over the past couple of weeks.

Students have learnt about halves, quarters and eighths. They discussed how the parts need to be equal and how, if we are dividing a collection, each group needs to have the same amount.

The children did numerous activities to cover these concepts including making craft pizzas, making pizza models on Maker’s Empire and we finished the week off with cutting and eating fairy bread.
