Our class is the first year of 'formal education'. We take on the challenges of reading writing, maths and learning to live in a community with all kinds of people.
In Sarah’s class, most mornings are usually designated to teaching the planned literacy program. This involves developing skills for story writing, learning and practising spelling and grammar rules and working on the finer points of hand writing.
We are the oldest group at Currambena, Years 5 and 6, and we usually have 20 to 22 kids in our group aged between 9 and 12 years old.We learn all the usual subjects in the Primary school curriculum… and we do some extra things which are very important to us!
We acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land, the Cammeraygal people, and pay respect to elders past, present and emerging, and all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
