Bushrangers

Posted by skoenig on 5th November 2009

A few weeks ago 5OK were asked the question, if you were transported back in time to the 1800s to be a bushranger in Australia, which one would you be? They needed to research four bushrangers, present a poster on their findings and decide which bushranger they would be.

Write a comment sharing with us which bushranger you chose and why. If you are not in 5OK but would like to share with us which bushranger you would be feel free to leave a comment aswell.

Ringwood Secondary School Band

Posted by skoenig on 25th October 2009

Tomorrow the Year fives and sixes will be lucky enough to experience the musical talents of students from Ringwood Secondary School. I am looking forward to it. If you already learn, or would like to learn an instrument when you go to secondary school, write a comment and let us know.

Melbourne Camp 2009

Posted by skoenig on 17th September 2009

This week 65 Year Five students traveled to Melbourne for a three day camp. We stayed at Urban Camp, which is near the zoo. During our camp we visited Melbourne Airport, The MCG, Parliament House, Victoria Market, The Shrine, The City Circle Tram, Melbourne Aquatic Centre, The Rialto, The Aquarium, The Arts Centre, The Racing Museum and The Mounted Police Branch.

It was a very, very busy camp! The people at the Urban Camp looked after all of us very well. All the children were very well behaved and all seemed to have a fabulous time. I enjoyed my time away with the Year Fives and would like to congratulate them on their excellent behaviour!

Have a safe and happy holiday everyone, see you next term!

Melbourne Symphony Orchestra

Posted by skoenig on 13th August 2009

Today the Year Fives and Sixes travelled to the Town Hall to listen to the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra perform.  We heard a range of different pieces of music, found out the different types of instruments that make up an orchestra and were entertained by an animated M.C.  I, myself really enjoyed it.  What did you think?

Welcome back to Term 3

Posted by skoenig on 15th July 2009

Hi everyone,

Welcome back to Term 3.  Everyone has settled back into school well.  The students in 5OK have been presenting their PowerPoint Projects from last term.  Oral presentations are tricky, however all students have presented their work very well.  Remembering to speak clearly, make eye contact, stand still and know what they are presenting.  Great work!

Leave a comment telling us positive points about a PowerPoint you have seen.

Keep working hard!

Miss Koenig
