Coming to the end of 2020, we reflect on what has been a great year with experiences and memories. In Year 5, we have had many projects that everyone enjoyed. Finding out about the Victorian Gold Rush, exploring countries in Europe and North America, learning about democracy, building mini towns for economics and creating our own businesses for the Business Expo were some of the highlights from this year.

With online learning we did extra fun activities including dancing, baking, mindfulness and games, like Kahoot. Everyone enjoyed our journey of online learning.
