Convict Day Year 4 History came to life in September on Convict Day. Boys and staff dressed as convicts and participated activities including ‘life on the ship’ during recess where they were given bread and water and made to sit in an area marked out as a ship as the soldiers (staff) kept watch. Other handson learning experiences, which we know the boys love, included tying knots, making damper and learning about life in at school in convict times.
Ultimate Frisbee On Friday the 11th of September the Middle School Charity Committee organised a Staff vs Students Ultimate Frisbee Match to raise money for the two boys from Nairobi, Africa who are sponsored by the Middle School: Timothy and John. It was a close match, with the students nearly taking the win with a breathtaking comeback. But with the final score of 5-6, the teachers team just secured the win!
