News from the classroom
Dear Parents and Caregivers, The Swimming Carnival yesterday perfectly epitomised the busy week, as the Primary school came together to have a whole lot of fun. The noise levels soared, as the students cheered on their peers, and the bright colours added to the exuberance of the event. The Year 6 leaders exhorted their Houses to everlouder cheering, which spurred on the swimmers to give their all. It really was a very special time of coming together for a common purpose – for each competitor to do their very best, and to contribute to their House’s points tally. The competition was fierce, as the swimmers pushed themselves, although sometimes it seemed that the competition for who could cheer the loudest was even more intense! All in all, it was a wonderful day and a reminder of why such
mass participation events play such an important role on the school calendar. We look forward to the Cross Country Carnival later in the term, and then the Athletics Carnival further on in the year. While such events inevitably cause us to notice the whole – a mass of similarly coloured supporters of one House, or the combination of all who make up the Primary School – one of the most special aspects of Reddam House is the focus on the individual. Each student matters, and we are constantly reminded that each student arrives at school every day with his or her own perspective on the world, a unique family environment, and very special talents, abilities and interests.
