Swimming Lessons

This year Pak Heights is very lucky to again receive free swimming lessons through the Find your Field of Dreams Foundation.  Room 20 had their second lesson today. The students are placed in ability groups with trained instructors.  

Here we are in action ...










Giraffes Play

This week the giraffes reading group have been learning to read with flow, fluency and expression.  They practised this by performing a play to the rest of the class.  Have a look at them in action in the photos below ....
