Open Night in Year Four
On Wednesday the 12th of September, we had our whole school Open Night. – Roman
In our classrooms, we showed our families around to look at some of the work we have been doing in class. – Soreti & Jessica
This was an opportunity to show our parents the progress we have made since Term One’s Open Night. – Michele
One of our big displays in the classroom was an Engineering Incursion Reflection which was part of our Balloon Powered Car Project. – Adam & Nicholas
Another display we had in our classroom was our Fruit of the Holy Spirit Goodness comic strips. – Rihanna
We also had a display outside the classroom which were our self portraits that we drew. Our parents had to guess which one we were! – Joshua
This Open Night was a little bit different to the one in Term One. Over in the hall we had a big Maths Expo which we called a ‘Mathstravaganza’. – Ruby & Kieran
The Year Four exhibition was about time and following directions to locate information on a grid. We took part in the challenge with our families to get on the grid and answer the questions. – Daisy, Sophie J & Amber
There were also a few tents in the hall which showcased different parts of maths. – Jayne
The three tents were problem solving, mental maths and MAI. – Jordan, Josh & Lizzie

Community Mass and Fr Giovanni Visit
This morning, staff and some students joined other parishioners in celebrating our monthly Community Mass. It was great to see some Year Four families joining us, and we are hoping that more and more St Emilie’s families will be at our next Community Mass at 8am on Wednesday the 5th of September, in Week Eight.
The Year Fours were also lucky enough to have Father Giovanni visit us later in the day! It was great to hear some of Father’s stories and talk about our upcoming First Eucharist.

Fr Giovanni Visit
Yesterday, Fr Giovanni came to visit us to see what we were learning about. – Gillian
We talked about our conscience and what we had been up to that day. – Nikhael
Fr Giovanni talked us through some scenarios where we would need to listen to our conscience and we debated them with him. – Adam
We were talking about what we have been looking at in our Religious Education, like how we are about to learn about the lead up to Easter, the Last Supper and the Stations of the Cross. – Zoe & Taylah
We also talked about faith – what faith is and that just because you can’t see something it doesn’t mean it is not real or true. – Azari & Sophie Lagana
We love hearing stories and talking with Fr Giovanni. – Tina

Class Sport in Year Four
On Friday in Year Four we went outside to play class sport. – Ayva
We played the game King Bin Kick-It. – Summer
In this game there are separate teams for bowling/fielding and kicking. – Ignatius
The aim of the game is to get as many runs as you can for your team if you are the kickers. The bowling team tries to bowl the kickers out from their allocated hoops. – Owen
Instead of normal cricket, we kick the ball, which helps us to develop different skills. – Daniel
This is a great game to exercise our whole bodies. – Sajith
We also learn about taking turns and working together as a team. – Mya & Reece

Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing
In Year Four we have been reading the novel Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing by Judy Blume. – Justin
We read a couple of chapters of the book, then, using our iPads and Book Creator, we answer questions about what we have just read. – Nicholas & Grace.
While someone is reading aloud, the teachers ask us some questions about how characters may be feeling and about the choices they make. – Joel
Sometimes the teacher reads and other times the teachers ask us to take turns reading aloud. This helps us to be more confident, it helps us to read loudly and with fluency and expression. – Azari, Ethan, Linisha, Sophie J & Joel
So far in the text, we know that Peter, the main character, has a little brother called Fudge, who is his biggest problem. – Taylah
We have read up to chapter seven and so far we have found the text to be very funny. – Joshua & Eva
We can’t wait to see what happens in the end! – Molly
