Deputy Principal report
NATIONAL SCIENCE WEEK
National Science Week is Australia’s annual celebration of science and technology. ‘Glass: More than meets the eye’ is the school theme for National Science Week in 2022 to celebrate the United Nations International Year of Glass.
Some of our classes will highlight how glass is so useful to all of us and provide opportunities to understand a household item in a new light. Glass has many useful properties, which has led to it being used in various applications from kitchenware to telescopes. We look forward to student’s learning about this material this week.
MAPLE- BRIDGING THE GAP
As Maple begins to become more familiar with her surroundings, the students and teachers, there will be more opportunities for interaction.
It can at times be confusing when we are wondering when we apply the 3 expectations to scenarios with Maple, and when we should move more towards interaction. This can be a real grey area for everyone.
Attached is a video called ‘Bridging the Gap’ which provides some clarity around the interactions we can begin having with Maple.
