Creative Arts News

What a busy week we have had again this week. Firstly, thanks to all of our St Agnes’ students for participating in our 'Day of the Living Arts Festival', and coming to visit our Art Gallery exhibition. We are so lucky to have such a wonderful group of creative and talented students. Our Gallery was set up in the Hall this week so that all grades could visit. We also took the opportunity to film this exhibition as part of our Creative Arts showcase movie which is currently in production.

Year 2

This week Year 2 have been exploring 2D shapes. We used the Tangrams on the OSMOs to develop the skills of flip, slide, and turn. On Wednesday, students had a lot of fun developing their concepts of symmetry by designing and making symmetry sculptures.

Year 6 Speed-Dating With A Non-Fiction Book!
This week the Library was set up for some speed-dating action. Maybe we'll find some love matches?
The final week for 2021 Library borrowing for Year 6 will be in Week 7. For all other students, the final week for Library borrowing will be Week 8. There will be a special prize for the first class to have all of their Library books returned for the year as well as some other prizes for students who have all of their books returned by the end of Week 9. We will continue to have lots of fun activities and learning in the Library all the way up to the end of the school year.
