✏️✨ Check out this fantastic Prep writing!

After Grandparents Day, our students completed a “Stop and Pause” writing task. We are so proud of how well they have organised their ideas and communicated their experiences.

A great example of the strong foundations being built through our writing program from the very start of school! 🌟

In the Art room we have been using Indigenous art as our inspiration to coincide with Reconciliation Week. The Preps have been looking at the colourful artwork of Brandy Tjungurrayi to create their collage patterns. The Year 4 students have used the plants and leaves from GIPS to create beautiful prints and add their own patterned leaves. Classes also made an Acknowledgement of Country to hang in their classrooms using gum leaves from our very old gum tree.

Today we recognise Education Support Staff Day at Glen Iris Primary School 💙

Our education support staff are at the heart of our school community. Through their care, patience, expertise, and dedication, they help create a community where every child feels safe, supported, and able to thrive.

From supporting learning in classrooms, to building relationships with students, assisting with wellbeing, administration, and the many behind-the-scenes tasks that keep our school running smoothly, their contribution is invaluable every single day.

Thank you for the kindness, professionalism, and commitment you bring to our school community. Glen Iris Primary School is stronger because of you.

As part of our Inquiry unit on “People Who Help Us,” Miss King recently had the exciting opportunity to dress up as a firefighter! 🚒🔥

Students loved learning about the important role firefighters play in keeping our community safe and asking lots of thoughtful questions along the way.

This week in Mathematics, Grade 1 students have been strengthening their knowledge of place value and representing numbers in varied ways. We have been practising partitioning numbers into tens and ones and writing these in expanded form as number sentences (for example 34 is 30 + 4). Students have also been building confidence ordering, reading and representing numbers using hands-on materials and mathematical thinking strategies.
